It snowed for the first time this winter in Korea.
Today, I will introduce Korean Street Food.
Those are especially popular during the winter season!!




If you visit Korea, the vendors sell them in a similar way to Korean fish cake with soup "called eomuk 어묵"", Baked sweet potatoes and chestnuts.




Hoppang 호빵

Hoppang is a warm snack sold throughout Korea. It is a pre-cooked ball of rice flour filled with something such as red bean paste, similar to Chinese dòushābāo. The hoppang is steamed to keep it warm and sold at small shops like 7-11Buy the Way, and many small independent grocery stores throughout the winter months.

Another popular one is fish-cake 오뎅.
The vendors sell fish-cake as skewered type with soup.




This Fish-shaped bread is called Bungeoppang 붕어빵.

Bungeoppang (lit. “crucian carp cake/bread”) is the Korean name of a pastry similar to the Japanese fish-shaped pastry taiyaki.
Bungeoppangs are prepared using an appliance similar to a waffle iron. The batter is poured into a fish-shaped mold, red bean paste is added, then more batter to encase the red bean paste. The mold is then closed, and roasted.
In Korean, bung'eo (붕어) means Carassius, a kind of fish, and ppang (빵) means bread.

[Korean Food] Lotte.com Global/ Korean Food Top Picks 1 / Korean Instant Food/ Microwaving Food/ Instant Noodles


Do you like Korean food or want to try it? But there is no time to go out for a meal and there are no Korean restaurant near your house or office, so you don`t have chance to enjoy Korean food? If you so, please don`t be disappointed for that. If you have a microwave or hot water in your kitchen, you can enjoy Korean food sitting on your couch and watching  TV show. Today I will introduce you Korean food with Korean instant food. 




1. Ox Bone Soup(Seolleongtang)


   Seolleongtang is a Korean broth tang (soup) made from ox bones (mostly leg bones), brisket and other cuts. Seasoning is generally done at the table according to personal taste by adding salt, ground black pepper, red pepper, minced garlic, or chopped spring onions. It is a local dish of Seoul.

2. Korean pumpkin porridge(Hobakjuk)



It is viscous, yellow-orange juk, or porridge, gets its distinctive color and flavor from the pumpkin, its namesake and its main ingredient. The pumpkin is peeled, boiled, and blended with glutinous rice flour, and the result is a bowl of porridge so creamy, golden, and sweet that in some ways it seems more pudding than porridge. 
Hobakjuk is often served as an appetizer to meals, or as a health food: it is supposedly beneficial to those suffering from intestinal problems. The specifics of medicinal science aside, it’s not difficult to imagine that this mellow, mildly flavored meal can heal.

3. Bulgogi



It is well-known Korean sweet meat dish, which has existed in some form for over a thousand years, was haute cuisine during the Joseon Dynasty.
The dish is also a fusion favorite: bulgogi-flavored burgers are part of the menu at fast food franchise Lotteria, and there have also been sightings of other adaptations like the bulgogi panini.

4. Galbi(Kalbi)



The ingredients (often, ribs or meats) are marinated in a sauce made primarily from soy sauce, garlic, and sugar. However, several variations on the marinade exist, including recipes that utilize sesame oil, rice wine or hot pepper paste. Fruit juice, lemon-lime soda and honey have become more common additions to Korean marinades in recent years, and is present in some incarnations of the dish.

Galbi is generally served in restaurants known as "galbi houses", and the meat is cooked right at customers' tables on grills set in the tables (usually by the customers themselves). It is typically served with lettuce, perilla, or other leafy vegetables used to wrap the meat, which is then dipped in ssamjang (쌈장), a sauce made of fermented bean paste and red pepper paste. It is often accompanied by side dishes known as banchan.

5. Kimchi Stew(Kimchi jjigae)



 Kimchi jjigae is often cooked in Korean homes using older, more fermented and “ripe” kimchi, creating a much stronger taste and containing higher amounts of "“good” bacteria also found in yogurt.  However, it should be noted that the living bacteria present in fresh, uncooked kimchi will not survive the cooking process. The stew is said to be more flavorful if prepared with older kimchi, while fresh kimchi may not bring out a full and rich flavor. Kimchi is the most important ingredient in kimchi jjigae, and other ingredients tend to depend on personal preferences.

6. Kimchi Stew


 Koreans have a saying that goes, “fight heat with heat.” What that means is Koreans love to eat boiling hot dishes on the hottest summer days. 
 The most representative of these is samgyetang, a thick, glutinous soup with a whole stuffed chicken floating in its boiling depths. 
 The cooking process tones down the ginseng’s signature bitterness and leaves an oddly appealing, aromatic flavor in its stead -- a flavor that permeates an entire bird boiled down to a juicy softness.
