In Korea, families and relatives gather together to talk and spend time and make holiday food during the New Year’s holidays. After COVID-19, I can’t spend it in the same noisy atmosphere as before, but I will leave my regret behind and introduce delicious New Year’s food with the hope that I will be healthy and safe this year.
[ Rice cake soup ]
1. I soaked the rice cake in water.
2. Stir-fry beef and egg garnish.
3. Put sesame oil in a pot, stir-fry minced garlic and green onions, and then add brisket and stir-fry them together. At this time, it’s good to add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and season it slightly. If you boil only plain water without broth, the soup becomes clean and light.
4. All you have to do is add the soaked rice cake and boil it.
Rice Cake soup is most important thing of Korean New Year’s holiday food.
and Rice Cake soup is a Korean New Year’s holiday food that many korean people like.
[ Sliced Korean kebab ]
The ingredients you need are 600g of meat, 2 green onions, 5 tablespoons of soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 4 tablespoons of sesame oil, 2 tablespoons of minced garlic, a little pepper and 4 eggs.
1. I need to get rid of the meat blood first. Put it on a kitchen towel and press it down. Then, cut it into bite-size pieces. The important thing here is not to slice it too thin. It has to be thick enough to chew.
2. Cut the green onion into long pieces and put it in the bowl to make the sauce.Then add the rest of the seasoning ingredients, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and pepper, mix them together, and finally pour them into the bowl with green onions and mix them evenly. If you marinate it for 20 to 30 minutes, the seasoning will soak better and it’s delicious.
3. In the meantime, oil the pan and preheat it. If you turn the heat on high, it’ll burn quickly, so you have to pay attention to the fire control. When it’s heated enough, put the marinated meat on top and grill it. Cook until the outside is cooked. That way, the insides will be cooked deliciously. When one side is cooked, turn it upside down and cook the other side.
If both sides look golden brown, take them out and transfer them to a plate.
[ Sweet rice drink ]
Ingredients required: 400g of malt oil, 2L of water, 500g of sugar, a bowl and a half of rice (400g)
1. Put the malt powder in a large bowl and pour lukewarm water and knead it with your hands. If you leave it unattended for 20 to 30 minutes, white water will come out. Strain through a cotton cloth or sieve to remove the residue.
2. Put washed rice or cold rice in a rice cooker and pour the prepared malt water. The amount of water is usually about 3 liters, but you can adjust it according to your preference. Leave it in the warm mode for 4-6 hours. At this time, you should leave the lid open or press the cooking button to release the pressure. Cool thoroughly and store in the refrigerator.
3. You can enjoy it cooler if you take an appropriate amount of ice each time you eat it, and you can adjust the sweetness by adding sugar according to your preference.
[ Japchae ]
1. First, boil the noodles without soaking them. That way, the seasoning will permeate better.
2. Prepare pork for japchae and season it with soy sauce, sugar, minced garlic, pepper, and sesame oil.
3. Slice onions, carrots, and chives, add oil to the pan, stir-fry the meat, and when it’s cooked to a certain extent, add vegetables and stir-fry.
4. Lastly, add the boiled glass noodles, add soy sauce, sugar, oligosaccharide, and sesame seeds, and stir-fry them.
Japchae is a holiday food that many people all over the world like.
So I am going to introduce Japchae and write about how to make it separately.
[ Steamed ribs ]
