Kalbi is a staple of Korean fine dining but is too expensive in restaurants. It is simple to make at home with beef short ribs and a sweet and savory sesame and soy sauce marinade. It's traditionally served sliced, rolled in romaine lettuce leaves with white rice, lightly browned garlic slices, and gochujang (Korean red pepper paste). Sure to leave your guests asking for more!

These fried bologna bánh mì bites will be the best appetizer at the party. The contrast between rich, butter-fried crispy edges of bologna atop soft baguette, raw-and-crispy marinated veggies, and the spicy sauce is incredible. I always say that cooking is about contrast, and this is the perfect one-bite example.
