Enhance your appitite with Korean-style food! Kimchi Remen(Cold Udon noodles topped with Korean pickles) and 　　　　Pajeon(Green onion pancake)
In Japan, it is said that Autumn is a good season for eating. ＼(^o^)／We recognize that Autumn has come when we hear beautiful sounds made by Japanese insects. We also say that “the insects are ringing in our stomach” when we are hungry. But, we haven’t escaped from the late summer heat yet. (+o+) It might leave you exhausted. (＠_＠;)Let’s try a couple of Korean recipes that will help us get into gear. Today, we will try making cold udon topped with a lot of Kimch - Korean pickled vegetables. (^_-)-☆A good match of between cold Udon and authentic kimchi and summer vegetables with spicy sauce makes you feel calm. It couldn’t be better unless we drink some beer. And pajeon takes you on a Korean voyage with Yon-sama(He is one of the most famous Korean actors in Japan.) You never help eating this food over and over again. (^・^)♪♪

But lately, we can often see “Jijimi” on the menu at a Korean restaurant and Izakaya. It is similar to “Joen” and is a dialect from the south part of Korea. “Joen” means Korean dumpling with various ingredients - vegetables and seafood like shrimp, squid and octopus and so on. “Pa” means a green onion in Korean Kujo negi(green onion) is well-known in Kyoto and the best season to eat it between Autumn and Winter. We also use kamaboko and chikuwa-a Japanese processed fish aimed for Korean-Japanese fusion. .
