양배추 무침, YangBaeChu MuChim
Posted by Aeri Lee on June 6, 2008

Yangbaechu Moochim is a simple Korean side dish recipe that I learned from one of my Korean friends in America. When you want to eat Kimchi, but don’t have it, this cabbage side dish can be a substitute. The taste is a little spicy, sour, and sweet. Depending on your tastes, you can add or reduce some of the ingredients such as pepper powder, vinegar, sugar, or salt. Cabbage is a very healthy vegetable; it is reportedly especially good for your stomach. So I want to recommend this easy Korean side dish for you. *^^*
Yield: 1 Quart
Short Korean Lesson: *^^*

Buchu Jeon is a popular Korean snack. Sometimes Koreans like to eat jeon (pancakes) on rainy days because it is a simple and quick snack to make without going out in the rain.
