Korean Comfort

There is nothing quite like a warm spicy stew with all the food pyramid essentials on a chilly winter evening.  Jee, who hails from Seoul, cooked Dongtae jjigae (동태찌개) a few weeks ago.  

I don’t think I have ever had this many different types of mushrooms in one dish before!


Looking really spicy…


 There are quite a few ingredients in this stew, including tofu, various mushrooms, napa cabbage, daikon, fish, chilies, garlic, and spices. 







The recent polar vortex has had us craving soup/stew dishes, so we will be showing quite a few on the blog in the upcoming weeks.

Last Supper

More exciting recipes to come soon!
