My neighborhood has soooo many restaurants and it is reasonable to eat out for Korean food. I usually eat out, but today I was not in the mood to gesture and guess. Certain foods I recognize in the Korean language, others not so much. I hope to improve.
I went to the Lotte dept. store today, yes this Bloomingdale's type store has a grocery store in the basement. Cool huh?
Everything is so neat and organized. Lots of fresh and organic produce and fresh meats. I decided to make one of my favorite Korean soups. Dwen jang chigae.
I put in some soybean paste, called dwen jang. It is tangier than miso, like the soup you get from the sushi joint.
I used some clams as the meat and broth.
I used a half of a potato.
Some green onion.
Kochujang. A red pepper paste.
Sesame oil.
Splash of soy sauce.
Tofu.
Ta da!
