Korean hand-torn noodle soup (sujebi)
This brings back a lot of happy childhood memories for me. We used a recipe from Maangchi’s Real Korean Cooking. I had only tiny anchovies, so I used about 40 tiny ones rather than 12 large ones (about ½ cup). We also have used 1 potato (instead of 2) and replaced the second potato with… Continue reading Korean hand-torn noodle soup (sujebi)
Korean seasoned acorn jelly (dotorimuk muchim)
I simplified this recipe from Maangchi: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/dotorimukmuchim. I used store-bought acorn jelly, cut it into bite sized pieces, and then tossed with 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil, ½ tsp sugar, a few minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp sesame seeds. Garnished with 1 tsp chopped scallion greens. (June 2015)

Recipe from Maangchi’s Real Korean Cooking cookbook. Nearly identical recipe on Maangchi’s blog: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/dwaejigogibokkeum. We used thinly sliced pork loin and white sugar instead of brown. (June 2015)
Korean persimmon punch with cinnamon and ginger (sujeonggwa)
After having this dessert beverage at Korean restaurants for years, I finally tried making it at home. Recipe from Maangchi’s Real Korean Cooking cookbook. Similar recipe on her blog: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/sujeonggwa. The directions were the same, with only slight differences in ingredient proportions.

Korean three-mushroom rice with minced pork topping
We had some leftover enoki and bunashimeji mushrooms, so we tried this recipe: http://www.beyondkimchee.com/mushroom-rice-bowl/. Because the amount of heat was higher than expected and the sauce very salty, we recommend reducing the pepper flakes and fresh pepper by half and reducing the soy sauce from 7 Tbsp to 4 Tbsp. Other modifications: first, to make… Continue reading Korean three-mushroom rice with minced pork topping

Sauté ¼ lb julienned beef in sesame oil until browned, then add about 8 cups water. Season to taste… Continue reading Korean rice cake soup (dduk guk)

Cover and let simmer for about 20 minutes, then add scallions, cut into straws. Continue to simmer for about 5 minutes, then season to taste.… Continue reading Korean-style clear beef soup
