What is manual rice glue?
I love eating rice papers, more than seaweed sheets, but I really want to try these rice paper seaweed chips! Any chips deserve attention!
Korean audio + English subs for these 6 easy recipes:
cabbage soup
sesame broccoli
eggplant + zucchini
shrimp pancake
steamed tofu
sprouted egg salad
I want to try the tofu one, it seems really yummy!
Korean cooking glue is basically rice powder, flour, or sweet rice powder + water mix, boiled until it thickens and then becomes like glue. That’s what’s used for Gimbugak traditionally, but this lady is “cheating” and using the rice paper instead. The “glue” is also used in other dishes, such as Kimchi.
I’m not 100% sure, either, but I thought the hands looked more like a girl’s hands, and even the way she wrote sounded more girlish, although a guy can speak that way too.
My family really likes that dish, too. Cucumbers are totally optional, so you can omit it or use something else like Minari (like the movie title) instead. I don’t usually have minari or cucumbers in hand, so I just steam/boil the tofu and top it with seasoning. Simple and good. It looks like she used firm tofu, but I actually prefer using soft tofu for this dish. But either will work.
the one I watch is that Korean lady which of course dont know her name at the time. she has some interesting recipes as well, going to gheck those vids y’all shared today
These items were seemingly used for a soup base.
From the vid, the black item looks like a kind of kelp - kombu (Japanese 昆布干し dried kelp), or dasima (Korean 다시마), or haidai (Chinese 海带); and the brown item looks like a kind of fish (bonito) flakes. Two good and nutritious ingredients for soups or soup bases.
While I use these quite often, I could be wrong here, and this master could have used something else.
=> It is 다시마 dasima for sure, an absolute necessity for any Korean anchovy/kep broth!
=> Although it’s a little hard to see exactly what it is, I have to agree with jadecloud88 that it looks like bonito flakes (가다랑이포 in Korean / 가쓰오부시 in Japanes, but don’t know how to spell it in Japanese.)
