Dwaeji Galbi is pork marinated with sweet and salty seasoning based on soy sauce.
To be exact, Dwaeji Galbi is about the meat attached to the ribs of pigs, and Moksal is used because the amount of meat attached to the ribs of pigs is small due to the popularity of Samgyeopsal in Korea.
In the past, Dwaeji Galbi was more popular than Samgyeopsal, but now it has given way to Samgyeopsal.
Dwaeji Galbi doesn’t cook well at home.
The reason is that Dwaeji Galbi restaurants have a secret recipe for seasoning.
Restaurants that sell pork belly also sell Dwaeji Galbi, but it is recommended to try it at restaurants that sell only Daeji Galbi.
It will not be easy because the number of Dwaeji Galbi restaurants is gradually decreasing.
If you visit a meat restaurant (Gogigib) that sells Samgyeopsal and Dwaeji Galbi also sells it, it is recommended to order only one serving of Dwaeji Galbi after eating Samgyeopsal.
It consists of flesh attached to pork ribs.
However, as mentioned above, due to the popularity of Samgyeopsal, there are not many cases of meat attached to pork ribs.
It can be seen that pork ribs are pasted with Moksal.
Dwaeji Galbi burns well when grilled because it is seasoned.
If you need to be careful when grilling, don’t burn it.
Dwaeji Galbi is sweet and salty, so it is recommended to eat it wrapped in vegetables such as lettuce.
