Gochujung Braised Brisket
Brisket doesn’t have to remind you of your grandmother. It can be fun and hip. That’s why we made a version with gochujang, Korean chile paste that adds spicy slightly sweet flavor to the dish. Gochujang is made from several ingredients including fermented soybeans, which pack intense umami flavor and make the brisket taste a bit like aged steak. This recipe makes a piece of meat that’s so tender and succulent that the word “dry” won’t have a chance to cross anyone’s mind. Dish it up at Passover or make it for your next special occasion meal; we guarantee that it’ll wow everyone in the room (thankfully, there’s enough for seconds).
