Who wants seaweed soup?
10 Dec
Here is my dinner from the other night.
Coincidentally, both of my side dishes happen to have radish, and are from my mom. On the left- seasoned dried radish bits and radish Kimchi on the right.
While I was always a fan of the dried, roasted seaweed, I didn’t really like the soupy seaweed too much. There was something not so appetizing about the slimy texture. I guess I don’t really mind it as much now.
In Korean culture, seaweed soup is always given to mothers who just gave birth because it helps you replenish the blood lost during childbirth. Not sure if that’s scientific or not. And it doesn’t matter how old you are; seaweed soup is a must have on your birthday.
