In Korea, it’s currently the Lunar New Year (Gujeong). One dish that is absolutely essential for the holiday table is Jeon (Korean savory pancakes). Among the many varieties, Beef Jeon (Yukjeon) is a favorite because it’s delicious and packed with protein.
In Korea, you can simply walk into any butcher shop and ask for “meat for Yukjeon,” and they will slice the beef to the perfect thickness. However, finding that specific cut can be quite a challenge here in the U.S.
That’s when I came up with a great alternative! I discovered that Shaved Beef, which is commonly found in American grocery stores for making Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, is the perfect substitute. It makes the cooking process so much easier, and the taste is fantastic.
Here is my special recipe for making simple, delicious Beef Jeon using shaved beef.

Did you have a great holiday? Is your belly still filled with all of that delicious holiday food? What do you usually do with your leftover holiday foods like ham? Maybe some of you freeze your leftover ham like us. Today, I want to share a good potato croquette recipe using your leftover ham. You will get great flavor and texture from the crispy breadcrumbs and soft mashed potatoes on the inside, along with the ham and other vegetables. To make it a little less greasy, I baked them instead of deep frying them. They were still very tasty. Try them someday. 🙂

It would be weird to hear that somebody doesn’t like kimchi or kimchi soup in Korea, except for maybe young kids. Of course once they grow up, they like it. Kimchi is the most famous Korean food. It is thought to be one of the healthiest foods in the world. Like some other Korean food, there are different types of kimchi soup, depending on the ingredients: tofu, tuna, pork, bean sprout, etc. Today, I will post one of them, tuna kimchi soup.
