In Korea, we use some fruits for cooking such as the Asian pear, apple, kiwi, and so on. Pears are especially good for marinating meat such as BulGoGi, since it gives a naturally sweet flavor, and makes the meat tender. When you can’t get an Asian pear, use a can of pear juice for your cooking. We drink this pear juice in Korea, but it can be used for cooking also. 😀

Short Korean Lesson
- Bae (배) = Pear
- Juice (쥬스) = Juice
How can I find the Korean pear juice that is supposed to be good for preventing hangovers? It’s not on Amazon.com and I’m unfamiliar with the Korean language and don’t really know what to order?
Thanks,
