Korean cuisine
Today, we focused on Korean culture. Minju and Yang invited us to their place to celebrate Chuseok. It’s a holiday in Korea that celebrates the rice harvest (similar to Thanksgiving). It’s a big family gathering usually held at the grandmother's house. Minju and Yang had never cooked these dishes before. We made bibimbap, potato pancakes, buckwheat noodles, and tofu/zucchini pancakes. These cooking moments taught me patience! In France, dishes take time to cook, but it’s usually the cooking itself that takes long, so we can do other things while waiting. Here, we had to cut the carrots into tiny slices, which took us a lot of time.
