I like Korean food. For one thing, it is much more healthy than that chemical soup we call food in the US. I don't care what your religious preference is or even if you are an atheist, you can use whatever name you will, but you can't improve on God. Period. Call it nature, the great force, whatever, what God made is good, what man makes is bad. Pure and simple. American food is a man-made concoction that destroys what God made. It's no wonder Americans are the fattest, sickest people on the planet.
Korean food is, for the most part, natural and unadulterated. I like that.
This morning we had a soup made from the lowly mugwort.The Koreans love to forage and you will quite often see Korean ladies wherever there are plants growing, picking the makings for their next meal.
Mugwort is one of my favorites. My wife makes a soup by coating the leaves with flower, then dipping them in egg and dropping them in boiling water. She adds some cut up green onion, and in just a matter of minutes a delicious soup is on the table.
Of course, we had the rice and kimche too, which are staples of the Korean diet. We also had some tweji kalbi, or pork ribs, which just added a little more to an already great breakfast.
May seem like a strange breakfast to Americans, but it is healthy, filling, and makes a great start for a great day.
