Beksul Beef Short Rib Marinade is a ready-to-use Galbi marinade sauce made by Beksul, one of Korea's most trusted food brands. It combines soy sauce, pear puree (11%), apple puree, onion, garlic, sesame oil, and black pepper in a well-balanced blend, so you can use it directly on meat without any additional seasoning preparation. Usage is simple: coat beef short ribs or beef generously with the marinade and leave to marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, then roast in the oven or cook in a pot. The natural enzymes from the pear and apple in the marinade also help tenderize the meat.

Yes, Beksul Beef Short Rib Marinade is suitable for both vegans and vegetarians. Despite the name referencing beef short ribs, the product itself is a marinade sauce made entirely from plant-based ingredients. It works beautifully brushed onto tofu, mushrooms, cauliflower, or other vegetables and grilled. Please note, however, that it contains gluten (wheat, barley), soy (soy sauce), and sesame oil (sesame), so those with sensitivities to these ingredients should check the allergen information carefully.

This product contains the following major allergens as required for mandatory declaration under EU Regulation 1169/2011. Please check carefully: ① Gluten: The soy sauce component contains wheat and barley used in the production of Koji. ② Soybeans: The soy sauce contains hydrolysed soy protein and defatted soybean. ③ Sesame: Sesame oil is included. Additionally, the soy sauce component contains rice wine (cooking rice wine), which may result in trace residual alcohol. We recommend contacting the manufacturer directly to confirm the presence of sulphites. Those with gluten intolerance, coeliac disease, or soy or sesame allergies should avoid this product.

Beksul Beef Short Rib Marinade has a complex flavor profile — savory and sweet, with a subtle fruity acidity. The deep umami of soy sauce forms the base, balanced by the natural sweetness of pear and apple puree. Notes of garlic and black pepper add a gentle warmth. To draw a European comparison, it is somewhat similar to a balsamic glaze or teriyaki sauce in the way it adds a glossy, deeply flavored coating to meat — but with a distinctly Korean flavor profile where soy sauce and fruit work in harmony. It is a flavor that even those new to Korean cuisine will find approachable and enjoyable.

Before opening, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. After opening, refrigerate and use as soon as possible. With a 500g size, you do not need to use it all at once. Store any remaining marinade in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Please follow the best-before date indicated on the product label for exact shelf life after opening. As the marinade contains fruit puree, always use a clean utensil to portion it out, and take care not to mix unused marinade with any that has already been in contact with raw meat.
