Bulgogi Soboro Ciabatta Sandwich

….I’m not sure where I first saw this bulgogi soboro recipe, but I’m glad I did. Sometimes we want to eat a sandwich stuffed with grilled, hot, melty perfection. You may ask yourself, does this sandwich really need mayonnaise? The answer is yes. A swipe of mayo, not butter, on the bread encourages that gorgeous exterior with bulgogi soboro. Also I made a special spread with mayo, cream cheese, mustard, fresh lemon juice, and honey. It’s important to remove the smell of beef meat, so I recommend you to add some mixed vegetables juice before marinating the ground beef. Then marinate the ground beef with Mat-Gan-Jang lightly. I made this hot sandwich for my husband who doesn’t like cold sandwiches. He always said “It really hits the spot”. Start our morning with a hot sandwich!
