- 1 asian pear (or bosc pear), peeled, cored, and roughly chopped
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 3 tbsp brown sugar

- 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped

- 2 tbsp mirin
- ½ tsp black pepper
For serving
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions

Rinse the short ribs under cold water and pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels. If any pieces are thicker than 1/4 inch, use a sharp knife to score the meat between the bones so the marinade can penetrate.

Combine the Asian pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, green onions, mirin, and black pepper in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
