Zucchini BokkEum
์ ํธ๋ฐ ๋ณถ์, AeHoBak BokkEum
AeHoBak BokkEum (์ ํธ๋ฐ ๋ณถ์) is a simple Korean side dish. The natural zucchini flavor shines in this dish with a hint of the garlic, green onions, salt, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. This is a common flavor that you can taste in Korean dishes. It is good when added to bibimbap.
Yield: 1 Pint
Soybean Curd ChoBap
์ ๋ถ ์ด๋ฐฅ, YuBu ChoBap
YuBu ChoBap (์ ๋ถ ์ด๋ฐฅ)is a Korean styled Japanese food. Korea and Japan are very close in distance and there were various relationships with each other throughout history. As a result, there are some food ideas that Korea and Japan borrowed from each other, such as Korean styled chap-ssal tteok (mochi) that was originally from Japan. Another example is Japanese styled kimoochi (kimchi) that was originally from Korea. Anyway, when I was little, I’ve never saw anybody eating yubu chobap or other kinds of sushi, then at some point, people started to eat sushi and it became popular in Korea. Since the preparation for this dish is easy, people often make this for picnics (along with Kimbap) or for a party. The rice tastes similar to the rice for sushi, which has a sweet and sour flavor. You can make everything from scratch, but there are some companies that sell a ready-made pack. All you need to do is cook the rice, some vegetables (if you want extra vegetables), and that pack. So today, I’m going to show you how to use that package. Depending on your taste, you can add chopped burdock root or any other kinds of vegetables that you like. I tried different kinds of sweet peppers for this recipe, and I enjoyed eating this. If you like sushi, you might like this dish.

Seasoned Soybean Curd
์ ๋ถ, YuBu
This is ready-made yubu chobap packed with seasoned soybean curd and sauce. It was my first time to try this brand (Assi,) and it was good enough to use again.
Haddock Jeon
์์ ์ , SaengSeon Jeon
In Korean cuisine, there are many different kinds of jeon (์ ). Jeon is basically slightly salted food (meat, seafood, fish, mushrooms, vegetables, etc.) that is covered with flour and eggs, or dip in batter and fried. Today, I’m going to show you a variety using fish. You can use any white-fleshed fish such as haddock, pollack, and so on. My favorite for this recipe is haddock, because it has less of a fishy taste. Since it is not deep fried, it will be healthier, and you will not lose the flavor with excessive grease. ๐ Koreans usually eat this as a side dish. It is best to eat this right after you cook it.
Yield: 3 Servings
