Étapes

Scrub the intestines clean

Scrub the intestines clean

Put the gopchang in a large bowl, sprinkle with the flour and coarse salt, and massage it with your hands for a few minutes, turning the pieces inside out if needed to scrape off the slimy inner lining. Rinse under cold running water, repeating the flour-and-salt massage and rinse two or three times.

  • 800 g beef small intestine
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 2 tbsp coarse salt

✅ C'est prêt quand : the rinsing water runs clear and the intestines no longer smell strong

Final rinse and cut

Final rinse and cut

Give the cleaned intestines one last rinse, this time with the soju or rice wine, to carry off any last trace of odor. Pat them dry with paper towels and cut into pieces about 5 cm (2 in) long.

  • 2 tbsp soju or rice wine

History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 Korea📅 20th century to today🔥 KR

Beef intestine was once an inexpensive cut, cooked up by workers and families who could not afford the more prized parts of the cow. Over time, gopchang-gui grew into its own specialty, with dedicated grill houses built around the smoky, chewy pleasure of well-cleaned, well-grilled intestine.

⭐ Why It's Famous

It's loved for the contrast of a crisp, charred surface against a tender, chewy bite, and for how well it pairs with soju and a sharp, spicy scallion salad.

💡 Fun Fact

Properly cleaning gopchang takes real skill, which is why many Koreans prefer to eat it at specialist restaurants rather than cook it at home.
