Korean Food & Things
Hi everyone,
These seafood fritters are often eaten by Koreans as a side dish, and they are very tasty and nutritious as the seafood, such as shrimp and squid, mix with various vegetables. It’s also great for lunch box side dishes and party and holiday foods. Try them someday.

Today, I will show you how to make one of my favorite Korean side dishes. For this dish, you need a special kind of fish: half dried pollack, which is called “CoDaRi” in Korean. Usually, you can find it in any Korean or Asian store. It has the right amount of salt already added. This dish is a little sweet with a slightly spicy taste. Since it is a half-dried fish, it has good texture for eating. Plus, it is a side dish that keeps longer in the refrigerator than other side dishes. We call this kind of delicious side dish as a “rice thief” (밥 도둑=Bap DoDuk) in Korea because it is easy to finish your bowl of rice quickly without other side dishes. haha … Without noticing much, your rice will be gone. Oops, it sounds dangerous for your diet. =P My husband tried it for the first time the other day, and he liked it. I just wish I could have gotten fresher fish, because then it would have been even more delicious. Anyway, I highly recommend that you try this for your meal someday. Thanks!

Hi Aeri’s Kitchen friends! If you follow me Instagram, you would know by now that I love kimbap and I have to eat it on a regular basis. I do not think that I was this crazy about Kimbap when I lived in Korea, but I do feel cravings for it in America. Maybe, it’s because that kimbap is a comfort food for me whenever I miss Korea. Anyway, since I shared a basic Kimbap recipe previously, today I want to teach you an upgraded version of Kimbap with more ingredients in it. Since it is bigger than normal kimbap, I will call it king kimbap, which is 왕김밥 (Wang GImBap) in Korean. It looks fancy and it tastes amazing. Of course, I will make it easy for you to try.

Hi Aeri’s Kitchen friends!
Have you ever tried spicy fish soup at a Korean restaurant? It was delicious, but it was also pricey. What if you can cook delicious Korean fish stew in 30 minutes at home? It will taste even better than the one you tried at the Korean restaurant. Today I’m going to share my super simple, yet very tasty, spicy red snapper soup recipe with you. It is called DoMi MaeUnTang (도미 매운탕) in Korean.
