Korean Cold Seaweed Cucumber Soup

August 23, 2017 by Holly Ford 2 Comments

Korean Cold Cucumber Seaweed Soup

Korean Cold Seaweed Cucumber Soup is a typical summer side dish. The Korean name for this dish is called "Ooi miyuk nangguk (오이미역냉국)". You can make a different variation by using cucumber alone or seaweed alone in this cold soup but I like to combine them both all in one dish. Cool and refreshing, this Korean cold seaweed cucumber soup can cool down the summer heat at the end of the day with your meal. I love the soft texture of seaweed that contrasts the crunchiness of cucumber. The ...

Beef and Cucumber Stir-Fry

May 11, 2015 by Holly Ford 8 Comments

You might think it is weird to stir-fry cucumbers but the stir-fried cucumbers are quite tasty and still remains its crunch texture. I made a simple beef and cucumber stir-fry the other day. I seasoned the thin beef slices with Korean flavored sauce, then stir-fried with cucumbers and some red chillies. In order to maintain the crunch texture of cucumber, toss with salt for a few minutes before you add to the stir-frying. That will extract some moisture out of cucumbers and help retain its ...

Chickpea and Lentil Salad

April 1, 2015 by Holly Ford 3 Comments

I enjoy waking up with the splendid sunlight in the morning. It sets a great energy to start a day. I don't always think of food when I get up since I  have lots chores to take care of in the morning. I, however, had yearning of a simple salad that I can use the ingredients I already have in my kitchen - - something light and refreshing without too much work of making the fancy dressing... I always keep a few cans of beans and lentils, and I also happened to have some cucumbers, ...

Spicy Korean Sea Snail Salad

June 15, 2013 by Holly Ford 25 Comments

I have a feeling that today's recipe will be either LOVE it or HATE it type. It is all about the snails, the edible kinds. Yikes!!! Actually the word "snail" for this dish is not the right translation. The sea snails I used for this recipe in Korean is called "골뱅이, golbangyi".  The snail in Korean is "달팽이, dalpangyi". I couldn't find the right English word for golbangyi, and the next close thing is the snail. So I will call this recipe the Spicy Korean Sea Snail Salad, 골뱅이 무침 (golbangyi ...

Korean Potato Salad

August 10, 2012 by Holly Ford 17 Comments

Korean Potato Salad

Honestly.., there is nothing Korean about it in this Potato salad. Then why do I call it Korean? Well..., because I had this kind of potato salad only in Korean restaurants and I always loved it. Velvety smooth mashed potatoes with crunch vegetables and hint of sweetness coming from the honey and raisins, this Korean Potato Salad was just perfect to top on my toasts for a simple lunch. ...

Spicy Cold Soba Noodles

There is no place like home... There is no place like home... Shopping in the narrow antique allies of Korea, eating loads of fabulous Korean food, camping in the Rocky mountains of Colorado, riding horse, fishing rainbow trouts, hang-out with families..., these are some of the wonderful things I had this past summer. I spent very good time both in Korea and U.S last month, but no matter how much fun I have in any exciting places, I always recite the same praise at the end of the trips, ...

  Don't you just love SUMMER? The heat, the humidity, the sweat, nicely preheated car in the parking lot, fully crowded beach, kids nagging out of boredom, loads of Popsicle boxes taking over your freezer, etc...
