Instructions

  1. 1
    Marinade: Mix soy sauce + sesame oil + sugar + honey + garlic + ginger + grated pear.
  2. 2
    Stir cannabis-infused sesame oil into the marinade.
  3. 3
    Add beef to marinade. Marinate for at least 30 minutes (2 hours = better).
  4. 4
    Heat wok or grill pan until very hot. No oil needed — the meat has enough marinade.
  5. 5
    Sauté beef in portions at high heat for 2–3 minutes to caramelize. Don't overcrowd!
  6. 6
    Add mushrooms and scallions in the last minute.
  7. 7
    Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with rice and lettuce leaves — wrap meat in lettuce.

Pro Tips

  • Cannabis-infused sesame oil in the marinade — during brief high-heat cooking, THC is largely preserved.
  • Grated pear is not optional — the enzymes tenderize the meat.
  • For authentic bulgogi: Slice meat paper-thin or slice while partially frozen.
