SOY-BRAISED VEGETABLE JJIM (KOREAN VEGETABLE STEW)
Inspired by Korean kalbi jjim (braised short ribs), this satisfying vegetarian one-pot meal features cremini mushrooms alongside hearty potatoes, squash, carrots and Korean radishes. The vegetables braise and release sweet juices into the pot, creating a deep, savory sauce infused with fragrant garlic and ginger. Since this stew is all about the vegetables, treat them well by cooking it in the oven. It's gentler on the vegetables, which have a tendency to fall apart when cooked over direct, aggressive heat. Vibrant orange kabocha squash has a rich, firm flesh, but lighter butternut squash is a good alternative. Leftovers can be transformed into a versatile tasty ragù: Simply chop the vegetables, simmer with crushed tomatoes and finish with grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, scallions, garlic and ginger, stirring constantly until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add soy sauce, sugar, potatoes, radish, 1 teaspoon black pepper and 1 cup of water, and mix well. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Cover and bake for 15 minutes, then stir in squash and carrots until well incorporated. Cover and bake until all the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes longer.
- Gently stir to evenly coat the vegetables in the sauce. Divide the stew in bowls and garnish with scallions. Serve with rice and kimchi, and drizzle with sesame oil, if using.
ROY CHOI'S BRAISED SHORT-RIB STEW
Here is an adaptation of the Korean braised-short-rib stew known as galbijjim, a staple of neighborhood potlucks and church suppers and, in the words of the Los Angeles chef Roy Choi, "that meal from home that every Korean kid says his or her mom does best." His recipe (well, my version of his recipe, which is his version of his mom's) is rich and deeply flavored, thickly sauced and pungent with sugar, spice, soy and garlic. It is the sort of meal you could put together on a weekend afternoon and serve for nights to come. It is the best sort of family food.

Steps:
- Put short ribs in a bowl, and cover with water. Drain, and discard water. Repeat twice. Remove short ribs from bowl, and score them diagonally across the top of the meat. Return ribs to the bowl, and rinse again. Remove, and pat dry.
- In a blender or food processor, combine scallions, soy sauce, ginger, onion, garlic, sugar, mirin, orange juice and apple juice, then pulse to purée. Add a little water if you need to thin out the sauce so it combines.
- Put puréed sauce in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven with a lid, add 3 cups water and stir to combine. Bring pot to a boil over high heat, then add the ribs to the pot and lower heat to a simmer. Cover pot.
- Cook ribs over low for at least 2 hours. Add vegetables, cover and simmer, 30 minutes more or so, until meat is tender and vegetables are cooked through. Serve warm.

Steps:
- To make the sauce, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh ginger, ground ginger, brown sugar, water, rice wine, pear, kiwi, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Fill a large stockpot with cold water. Soak the short ribs in the water for 30 minutes to 1 hour to pull out impurities. Drain. Score ribs by slicing shallow criss cross cuts across the meat.
- Fill the stockpot with clean water and bring to a boil. Simmer the short ribs in the water for 30 minutes. Drain. Return the simmered ribs to the pot; pour in the sauce, bring to a low boil. Simmer the ribs in the sauce for 60 minutes. Stir in the carrot, potatoes, green onions, yellow onion, chestnuts, and shiitake mushrooms. Simmer until vegetables are tender, at least 30 additional minutes.
