Korean Food and Recipes
Hi Everyone, today I will introduce a snack food that kids will love. It is a variation of TteokBokkI, using black bean paste instead of a spicy sauce. It is called “jajang tteokbokki” in Korean. Chewy rice cakes, cooked with savory black bean paste and vegetables, taste delicious. If your kids cannot eat normal spicy tteokbokki, this non spicy version can be a great substitute. Try it someday.

Hi Everyone! Today, I will make a very delicious fusion food using Sempio’s bulgogi sauce – Bulgogi Quesadillas.

Hi Everyone! Today I will make 2 different flavors of black bean ice-cream using chocolate syrup and Sempio’s drinking vinegar. At first, I was going to make a simple black bean drink like soy milk by grinding cooked black beans and adding milk or water to it. However, with my husband’s suggestion, I added some flavors to it, and at the end, I came up with these delicious homemade bean freezer-pop recipes. With simple steps and cooking skills, you can make this creamy, nutty, sweet, and deliciously flavored ice-cream at home. Try it someday. 🙂

Today, I will make 2 different kinds of pickles using Sempio’s pickling vinegar. When you make normal pickles at home, normally you boil the brine, pour the hot brine on the vegetables, and then wait at least several days before eating them. Sempio’s pickling vinegar has all the seasonings in it. So, you don’t have to boil a brine – simply pour their brine over the vegetables and it will be ready to eat in a day. The flavor is pretty good too. So when you are in a hurry, this can be a really good shortcut. Try them someday. 🙂

Hi Everyone! Today I will make a delicious chicken dish called “gyochon chicken” or “ganjang chicken” in Korean. Gyochon chicken is a popular Korean restaurant brand. Their specialty is this deep fried chicken covered with a sweet and salty sauce. Many people requested this dish; they particularly mentioned the name “Gyochon chicken.” It was interesting to see that so many people know and love this. To make it a little healthier and easier to make, I baked my chicken instead of deep frying it. The result was just as good. The crispy and chewy chicken, with savory sauce, tastes great. Try it someday. 🙂

Today, I will make a traditional royal palace dish using cucumber, which is called “OiSeon” in Korean. The special sweet and sour flavored dressing makes a great combination with the salted cucumbers, bulgogi meat, fried egg, and spicy hot pepper. It can be a great party food or appetizer. Try it someday.
