Here is a picture tour of day 1 of the Korean traditional food tour I joined.
We started out the tour on a peninsula of Chungcheong Province on the West coast of the country, hoping into a boat and heading out to catch some bass.
Above: Our rockin’ little boat. Below: Ziyeon, our amazing translator for the trip.
The one and only Tons baiting her line.
Bass for sashimi on the boat!
After eating sashimi on the boat, we went to a lady’s house where she prepared a dried bass soup called 우럭젓국 Ureok Jeotguk for us. It was an amazing fresh, spicy, meaty, not fishy tasting concoction. I loved it!
After finishing up with the soup, we headed back to the beach to catch some crabs.
We did good.
Then we played.
We slaughtered.
We cooked. Yangnyeom Gejang is the name of this spicy awesome sauce made to cover the raw crabs. Read more about it here written by teammate Lani Berry.
We ate.
Day 1 ended with a bunch of happy, full, and sleepy foreigners.
