There is a Korean proverb that says, “It is good to eat rice cakes that look good.” It seems that pretty food that pleases our eyes tastes even better. So today, I’m going to make a very pretty side dish using tofu and spam. This is called “tofu spam pancake.” The savory taste of tofu combined with the salty spam creates a very pleasing taste. I think it would be perfect as a side dish for a lunch box or as a finger food for a party. Try making it sometime.

What if you can grab a common ingredient from your local grocery store and turn it into a tasty Korean side? Does that sound good? Then, here is my super simple, yet healthy and delicious chickpea side dish recipe called 병아리콩 조림 (ByeongARiKong JoRim) in Korean. It has a salty, slightly sweet, nutty, and savory flavor. Oh~ it is so good. Btw, the even more appealing part for this recipe is that you can get just as great of a result by using canned chickpeas instead of dried chickpeas. Of course, you can save lots of time for cooking this way.

Cucumber is one of the vegetables that people either love or hate. I think that the refreshing flavor of cucumber can be part of the reason. Depending on the way you eat the cucumber, the refreshing flavor can easily turn into an unpleasant watery veggie flavor. That case in particular can happen to some of Korean cucumber sides. When you make a fresh cucumber side using Korean seasoning ingredients, it tastes wonderful right after you make the side. But, later, the texture and flavor of the cucumber changes, and it is not that great. So, today, I will share a Korean cucumber side-dish called 오이 생채 무침 (OI SaengChae MuChim) in Korean. You can enjoy this even after keeping it in the refrigerator for days with my special tip.
