These are nice warm red bean cakes made with gluey sticky rice flour, but they turn out so nice and fluffy with a bit of stretchiness - so fun to eat!
Step 1: Pouring the batter into molds
Step 2: Adding red bean mash
And voila! Yummy yummy bean cakes!
Here's another larger rectangular version with a whole egg cracked into the batter.
Pouf! Yummy fluffy egg-cakes!
I don't like sushi-boat restaurants. The whole concept is counter-intuitive to the idea of fresh sushi. I mean seriously, all that sushi sailing round and round being contaminated by breathing customers and getting stale within minutes of exposure. Non merci!
Yes, that is a slice of processed cheese covered with jellyfied ketchup and sweet fishy mayo. Totally gross.
More Kraft sushi - this one sans jelly-ketchup.
This was okay. It's hard to muck-up crab.
Another bland roll topped with sliced onion, fishy mayo and mystery yellow sauce.
I think this was scallop or oyster. I don't know.
Um, that white chunk sitting on top is cream cheese. I couldn't identify the yellow corn-meal looking stuff. Hmm.. maybe it's cornmeal.
This is what I mostly ate. The eel was actually good.
Sardine-type fish with a row of roe. Blarg!
A daikon radish! Okay, I've just been laying on the couch watching soaps for two days.. so here are pictures of some items I found on the balcony. Very exciting.
Duen jung - super stinky bean paste! How interesting.
Red bean mochi! So mooshy and delightful. Okay.. now back to my soaps.
They have strawberries in Korea now. Somehow way yummier than Western ones... there's lots of talk about the advanced hothouses here.
Here's my curry shrimp lunch stewing on the stove top. Onions, whole garlic, carrots, potato, apple, shrimp, green onions, oregano, curry and yuminess.
And here it is again simmering with a handful of green onions. I know a lot of people say this about their moms, but really - my mom is an amazing cook. She has a way of grabbing whatever's in the fridge and creating some sort of healthy and delicious meal with fun little side bowls of kimchees and veggies. Oh man it feels good to eat some home cooking.
