Ingredients: 1.5 lb beef short ribs (3-4 ribs), patted dry; 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided; ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper; 2 tablespoons neutral oil; 8 oz shiitake mushrooms, halved (keep stems); 6 oz roasted chestnuts (fresh or vacuum-packed), halved; 6 cloves garlic, peeled & crushed; 3 tablespoons ginger, sliced into thin coins; 4 dried shiitake (optional, for depth), rinsed; 1 cup soy sauce (low-sodium); ½ cup mirin; ½ cup water; 1 tablespoon honey; 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil; 1 star anise; 3 scallions, white & light green, cut into 2-inch pieces; 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (white), toasted; 1 teaspoon gochugaru, optional

Beef short ribs braised low and slow in a galbijjim-inspired broth (soy, mirin, garlic, ginger, sesame), surrounded by meaty shiitake mushrooms and sweet chestnuts. The braising liquid reduces to a glossy, deeply savory sauce that coats each tender piece. Korean comfort at its finest.
