What To Do:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Make the crema: <\/em>Mix the yogurt, 1 tablespoon gochujang, and lime juice until well-combined. Taste and add more gochujang if desired, then add just enough water to give the sauce a loose consistency.<\/p>\n

Make the slaw: <\/em>In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, lime juice, honey, and a big pinch of salt. Add the cucumber, apple, and shallot and toss to coat all over. Drizzle with sesame oil.<\/p>\n

Grill the beef: <\/em>Clean and oil the grates, then heat your grill to medium high. Place the short ribs directly over the flame and grill until gently charred on the outside, 2-3 minutes per side. Let rest about 5 minutes after removing from grill. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, wrap a stack of tortillas in aluminum foil and place them over indirect heat to warm up, turning the package every now and then. <\/p>\n

Chop the cooked short ribs into smaller pieces. Spread a little crema on each tortilla, then divide the beef between each. Top with the slaw and sprinkle with sesame seeds.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
