Here is an interesting way to try your steak. We all love putting butter on our steak to complement the taste. Compound butter (a formal name for a mix of butter and other ingredients) like herb, lemon and garlic butter is very popular on steak. The compound butter for this recipe is kimchi butter to add a bit of spice to the flavor. It is not too spicy to overwhelm the steak but does give it a touch of spice.
NOTE: In our recipe, I do not think I added enough kimchi juice so the taste was a bit mild. You can add more to make it a little spicier.
