The foods of Jeju
Thursday, November 6, 2008 by LookattheKite
Shortly after our arrival at JeJu Island, we went off to taste the traditional food.
On the left is hard boiled mackerel. It is quite spicy.
And on the right is also boiled pork. Since the women of Je Ju had to work as well as men, the boild pork is their common dish.
Koreans have been eating meat with vegetables and mainly they consume lettuce with pork, some rice and special sauce called "doenjang". This food is called "Ssam" which most Koreans love. "Ssam" is very healthy eating since we not only eat meat but also fresh greens:)
Now, my friend Sora is eating the "Ssam". It looks like her mouth cannot bear such big full Ssam!
