Tips

  • To enjoy as a “Ssam” or Korean Lettuce Wrap, place your rice and spicy bulgogi on top of your lettuce leaf.
  • When meal prepping to re-heat, make sure to put your lettuce & meat into separate ziploc bags to avoid getting the rice soggy.
  • When ready to eat, microwave the rice with a wet paper towel first to get it steamed, then add in your meat and microwave till warm, and finally eat with your lettuce to preserve the crunch and enjoy!
