Not Only Spreading Love, Also Sneak a Peek at Delicious Cuisine That Appears in Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha

Kapanlagi.com - The fever of HOMETOWN CHA-CHA-CHA continues to persist. Especially after episode 10 aired, surely many are happy with the presented storyline. However, its appeal is not only limited to the love story of Yoon Hye Jin and Hong Du Shik. The side story of other Gongjin residents also makes you smile.

In addition to spreading love, HOMETOWN CHA-CHA-CHA also presents many local delicacies that have extraordinary deliciousness. Let's take a look at the array of foods that emerge in this drama.

Hoe

Set in a coastal village, the most featured cuisine in HOMETOWN CHA-CHA-CHA is raw seafood or what is called hoe. This Korean-style sashimi actually appears in many other dramas as well, but it receives the main highlight in this drama because it is considered one of Gongjin's distinctive features.

In general, hoe restaurants in Korea not only serve raw fish. They also offer other seafood dishes such as squid, sea cucumber, and oysters. Hoe with white-colored meat is usually made from red snapper, flatfish, and rockfish with different textures depending on the fish used. If made from red snapper, it has a very chewy texture. While if made from flatfish, it will melt in your mouth.

Naengmyeon

Do you still remember the scene when Hong Du Shik, Ji Seong Hyun, and Yoon Hye Jin enjoyed lunch together with naengmyeon on the menu? Many might be curious, what is this dish like? Turns out, naengmyeon is one of Korea's unique noodle dishes. It is called unique because this food is served cold.

Yup, if you usually enjoy noodles with hot broth, naengmyeon is different, it is served cold, even complete with ice cubes. This noodle dish is usually enjoyed during the summer season to refresh the atmosphere. The broth cooked with special techniques becomes the secret of the deliciousness of the food. To enjoy naengmyeon, mandatory complements such as pickled radish, cucumber, and eggs are needed.

Mandu

In addition to enjoying naengmyeon, Hong Du Shik, Ji Seong Hyun, and Yoon Hye Jin also ordered mandu as a complement to their lunch menu. Mandu is a Korean dumpling dish made by placing meat or vegetables inside thin dumpling wrappers.

If in this drama you can see steamed mandu, actually the processing itself is quite diverse because there are mandu that are fried and enjoyed with cold broth. Each region in Korea also has its own way of cooking it.

Tangsuyuk

Another food that was widely discussed in several episodes of this drama is tangsuyuk. Yoon Hye Jin usually enjoys this food as a lunch menu with Pyo Mi Seon ordered from Jo Nam Suk's Chinese restaurant.

Tangsuyuk itself is deep-fried flour-coated meat dipped or poured with sweet and sour sauce. The Korean version is indeed made from pork, but there are many modern creations made from beef, chicken, or even mushrooms for those who do not eat meat. Tangsuyuk itself actually originated from Chinese cuisine which was then adjusted to the Korean people's taste. Yoon Hye Jin often cooks this dish with jjajangmyeon, you know.

Sirutteok

Flashback to episode 2 of HOMETOWN CHA-CHA-CHA, do you still remember when Yoon Hye Jin shared rice cakes when moving to Gongjin? These cakes are called Sirutteok, which are steamed rice cakes made from red beans and are one of the most famous snacks in Korea.

Sirutteok has its own meaning, which is to celebrate special events such as birthdays and greet new neighbors. Although there are many variations of toppings that have emerged, Korean people still choose red beans because of the traditional belief that this ingredient can ward off evil spirits.
