Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the vegetables. Trim the base of the enoki mushrooms and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Peel the carrot and julienne it thinly. Rinse the chives and cut them into manageable lengths. Place all prepared vegetables into a large bowl.
Step 2
Rinse the bean sprouts and drain them well. Add the bean sprouts to the bowl with the other vegetables. Lightly season with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Now, gently mix all the vegetables together using your hands. Be careful not to mash the vegetables; mix them gently so they retain their texture. Ensure everything is evenly combined.
Step 4
If your beef brisket is frozen, let it thaw naturally. Once thawed, use paper towels to gently press out any excess liquid or blood from the surface of the meat. Removing this moisture helps eliminate any gamey odors and ensures a cleaner taste.
Step 5
Lay out the beef brisket slices one by one. Generously place the mixed vegetables onto each slice of beef. Carefully roll up the brisket, ensuring the vegetables are enclosed. This will keep the filling intact during steaming.
Step 6
Fill a steamer with water and bring it to a boil. Once steaming, carefully arrange the rolled beef brisket in the steamer basket. Don’t worry if they touch or overlap slightly; they will still steam well. Cover the steamer and let them cook.
Step 7
While the rolls are steaming, let’s make two delicious sauces! For the Miso-Mayonnaise Sauce, combine the miso paste, mayonnaise, oligosaccharide, minced garlic, gochugaru, finely chopped Korean green chili, and water in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. (Using ‘Dadam’ brand miso paste will add a deeper flavor.) For the Soy Sauce Wasabi Dip, simply mix soy sauce and wasabi to your preference. These sauces are fantastic complements to the steamed brisket!
Step 8
There isn’t a strict cooking time for this dish, as beef brisket is very thin and cooks quickly. Steam for about 5-7 minutes, checking periodically. You’ll know they’re done when the beef is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. Be careful not to overcook, as the brisket can become tough.
Step 9
Following Baek Jong-won’s culinary wisdom, consider using the flavorful broth that drips from the brisket and vegetables during steaming to make a delicious doenjang jjigae (miso stew). Add ingredients like zucchini, onion, and tofu, and simmer. This stew, infused with the essence of the brisket, will be exceptionally tasty. Complete your meal with this hearty and flavorful stew!
