Ren last made beef bulgogi exactly 563 days ago, the results for which I posted HERE. The recipe she used back then was developed by her favorite Korean food blogger, Maangchi. Today, over a year and a half later, she makes it again following a new and improved Maangchi recipe, which the author proudly calls her best ever.
