Gol Bim Men Recipe – Paldo Bibim Men with Bai-Top Shell

It uses some ingredients I’ve never heard of before, but I’m sure the folks in South Korea are very familiar with them – Cho Gochujang and Bai-Top Shell.

Thank you to Moses over at Paldo America for sending me everything to make this! Always excited to try something new. ...see full post
