South Korea Day 1: Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Diary: Saturday 26 March in SEOUL
The posts for the next month will focus on our Spring trip to South Korea.
First, let us get to grips with the currency.
The World in a Suitcase
Gochugaru Girl and Mr Gochugaru are Guardians to Niece Number 1 and Niece Number 2.
We spend a lot of time on the airport run. However there are certain rewards…
South Korea: Lunch in Suwon
Gochugaru Girl has two worries when travelling to a new country.
The first concerns understanding the language.
Andong Jjimdak (안동 찜닭)
Gochugaru Girl does not believe in reinventing, deconstructing or otherwise meddling with classic dishes. She believes that classic dishes are classic because everyone loves them just as they are.
The dilemma is this: how do you serve a whole cut up chicken to three generations, aged 14 to 75, some of whom like chicken with bones and some of whom think bones are just for wild animals to chew on?
Green Tea Madeleines
Gochugaru Girl loves green tea in all its forms – as a refreshing hot drink brewed with the leaves and served without milk; as green tea latte made using ground green tea powder; as a dessert ingredient lending a slight bitter foil to the sweetness of cakes, biscuits and ice cream. Lately, she has even discovered its use in cosmetic products. Green tea, it seems, is good for us externally as well as internally.
There is a danger when trying to type with one hand whilst holding a cup of tea in the other. I have just made a typo and ‘iLad’ appeared instead of ‘iPad’.
