Jun!

Yummy- another cooking class this Monday and it was delicious once again! We made jun, which is an appetizer of various kinds -Korean style.

Sesame seed leaves were the wrapper and filled with a meat/garlic/tofu mixture dipped in flour, egg and fried. Stuffed Mushroom, peppers with filling, shrimp and lotus root were also fried. I had never tried lotus root before, and it has a similarity to deep fried sweet potato, except it is much more starchy. We made a dip that was part soy sauce, a bit of vinegar and a bit of sesame oil.

I think my husband is right. He says I should go to the Korean embassy in Taegu and get a Korean citizenship. I think I belong here! =)
