I'm trying to help my Korean ESL student figure out how to ask for the cuts of meat she needs for Korean cooking from our local butcher shop. (Asian pork belly, whatever cut of beef bulgogi is made from...etc...I can't cook Korean...but it sure is tasty!)
Anyone with some experience in Korean cuisine know what the "English" for the appropriate cuts of beef and pork are? I've taught her the English for the common American retail cuts...but "pot roast" and the way most American retail cuts are sold is not part of traditional Korean cooking. I realize she could go to a Korean grocery store and probably find everything...but the point is to learn to function in English.
We have a full-service butcher shop in town...just need to know what to ask him for!
Thanks!
