Friday, 2/3/17

I was very intrigued by a Lucky Peach recipe for Korean Spicy Monkey bread, and I had most of the ingredients on hand, so...
This was an odd pick. You saute hamburger with ginger, garlic, scallions, soy and brown sugar (this frankly was the best part), toss it with balls of canned biscuit dough, asian pears and gochujang, top with shredded cheddar and bake. It was so lowbrow that I was sure it would be amazing but I was underwhelmed. What would be better is the beef mixture just served over toasted biscuits, I think (like a Korean biscuits and gravy which I am surprised no one has thought of).The gochujang was also overpowering.Served it with (store bought) kimchi and sauteed chard (a nice complement to the richness). Don't think I would bother with it again as written.
