Sempio DakGalBi
샘표 닭갈비, Sempio DakGalBi

Have a quick and delicious meal with this pre-made Sempio dakgalbi sauce. I posted homemade dakgalbi before; this Sempio sauce tastes as good as my dakgalbi. The spicy and slightly sweet chicken, vegetables, and rice cakes taste very good. Amazon sells this sauce along with other pre-made Sempio sauce, so you can try them someday. 🙂 Of course, you can try my homemade dakgalbi recipe too.

Seafood and Green Onion Jeon
해물 파전, HaeMul PaJeon

Seafood and green onion pancakes are perfect for seafood lovers like myself. This is one of the most popular foods for festivals in Korea. The awesome taste comes from the different kinds of seafood and green onions, which are fried into a nicely golden-brown crispy pancake. Some people pour the egg on top of the pancake before frying it, but I prefer my egg in the batter. If you increase the salt a little more, you might not need dipping sauce. However, we usually use soy dipping sauce. Try this delicious food someday. 🙂

How to Eat (Wrap) Bulgogi
불고기 쌈, BulGoGi Ssam

Today, I will show you how to wrap Korean BBQ. One of the uniquenesses of Korean cuisine is wrapping BBQ with a variety of leafy greens, other vegetables, and a wrapping sauce called “ssamjang.” How man times have we eaten a main dish and not got enough vegetables in our diet? I know I have done it more times that I would like to admit. In that point, this is a healthy way to enjoy eating meat. You can use this method of eating with many other kinds of Korean BBQ and meat. However, in this post, I will use the Sempio bulgogi recipe that I just posted. I also posted a homemade bulgogi recipe in the past, so you can check it out too. If you are a vegetarian, you can fry some tofu, eggs, or mushrooms and wrap those instead of the meat. That will be delicious too. 🙂

Sempio bulgogi sauce is a product that I like to use for quick meals. Just marinating some meat with this sauce, and then frying it, makes for a delicious main dish. This sauce also can be used for other kinds of foods, limited only by your creativity; although today’s recipe is how make bulgogi. Enjoy the flavor as much as I did. 🙂

Perilla and Beef Jeon
깻잎 고기전, KkaetNip GoGiJeon

Beef and perilla jeon is a creative way of cooking perilla leaves. I like food with a good match of flavors in various ingredients. This food is a perfect example. The unique flavor of perilla tastes great with marinated beef. My husband is still not accustomed to the flavor of perilla, so he usually does not like it. However, he loved this perilla jeon. He said that the raw perilla taste is not strong; the jeon just tastes great. 🙂 So, if you see perilla leaves in a Korean or Asian grocery store, please try this someday. 😀

Sweet Red Bean Ppang

If you have a bread machine, you can make this very easy dessert at home. I will use my homemade red bean paste again in this recipe. 😉 Warm, freshly baked bread tastes very good with bean filling.

Red bean porridge (팥죽, PatJuk) is commonly eaten on the shortest day of the year in Korea. This warm and sweet porridge is a great meal for any winter day too. If you make your own red bean paste at home, or have canned red bean paste, it is a pretty easy recipe to make. The sweet and nutty flavors from the red bean paste, along with the chewy rice balls, taste great together.

Oyster Juk
굴죽, GulJuk

Oyster Juk (굴죽, GulJuk) is very popular in the winter because winter is the best season for good oysters. This is one of the many different kinds of porridge in Korean cuisine. For some good variations to this recipe, simply replace the oysters with some other seafood such as: clams, mussels, shrimp, scallops, etc. This tastes great with the mild flavor of white rice.
