Naturally, the first one is ginseng chicken soup, followed by a series of Korean specialties such as troop hot pot. Korea has been a vassal state of China since ancient times, but there are many places where Korean food is not similar to Chinese food. The first is their specialty, ginseng chicken soup.
The ginseng used in ginseng soup is not ginseng, but Korean ginseng, and the chicken is also very particular, it must be a six-week-old chicken. Ginseng chicken soup is a very famous Korean specialties, the use of materials is very careful. In addition to the six-week-old chicken mentioned above, dozens of medicines such as ginseng, astragalus and jujubes are also added to the soup. It is said that this ginseng chicken soup is not only delicious, but also has medicinal value, which can replenish qi, nourish the face, tranquilize the mind and even prolong life, and can be eaten in all seasons, with excellent nourishing effect.
The second is fried rice cake. Korean dramas often see men and women standing on the roadside stalls, take a bamboo stick stick up a hot fried rice cake, see them eat a happy face, if you have the opportunity to go to South Korea must go to try. The third is the troop hot pot. Korea has a military service system where every Korean boy reaches the age of 20 and is forced to go to the army for at least a year before returning. The invention of the troop hot pot is said to be the result of a group of older boys who couldn't cook getting together and throwing all kinds of ingredients into a hot pot.
Fourth is stone pot bibimbap. Korea's stone pot bibimbap has a long history, starting out as a way of mixing leftovers together so that they wouldn't go to waste, and gradually evolving into a delicacy. The stone pots are made of ceramic to minimize heat loss and keep the rice from getting cold so quickly. And the bibimbap dishes range from cheap bean sprouts to expensive eel. There are many, many, many more specialty snacks in Korea, so if you have the chance to go, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat them all in one day and one night.
