보쌈, bossam
| Lunch with family yesterday in Daegu, hole in the wall restaurant in 달서구, doesn't even show up in Google Maps. We got the bossam meal (보쌈 정식). The stove is just to keep the pork warm with gentle steam. Wrap it with the bossam kimchi (more on this below) with 새우젓, or whatever you fancy--Iike garlic with ssamjang. Not in pic are various gukbab (국밥) and mandu (만두). Basically way too much food, but Korean restaurants are getting better about takeout boxes. Using the "kimchee" tag, because 보쌈 used to mean the type of kimchi (lower right), but one day it became to mean the pork, and the kimchi part became bossam kimchi. At least according to the namu wiki on bossam, which I thought was pretty interesting, and sort of matches my memories way back in the day, lol. [link] [comments] |
