“……What can I do? It is my job”
Jo Minjun answered in a disappointed voice Ella turned her head and glared sharply at Kaya Anderson picked up so to speak
“You really feel like you are being served a feast when there are so ant at the same time There is too et full”
“There is so I heard in the past My country used to have a lot of econoo There weren’t many people who could eat until they were co and desire for food Of course, I haven’t personally experienced that tih that ti such a feast that seeht an unbelievable sense of happiness for them”
“I knohat that feels like”
Kaya started to speak with a bitter smile Jo Minjun looked toward Kaya Kaya looked around the table with a nostalgic gaze
“Even if the world has gotten better, the poor people are still poor And the biggest issue for the poor is always food Eating a littlelike that was our way of relieving stress That is why …… I like this spread My dream was to be able to eat a lot of delicious food”
Chloe patted Kaya’s shoulder with pity Kaya continued in a mischievous tone
“But now, I auess even I have succeeded in a way”
“No need to guess You have succeeded in a very cool way”
Jo Minjun s Jo Minjun’s calf with her toes, as if she was saying thanks Jo Minjun suddenly became nervous and looked around at the others It was obvious to say that nobody else had realized what happened Jo Minjun let out a cough before starting to speak
“What are your thoughts about the food you ate? Lisa, what do you like the most?”
“For me ……I like this one the most”
Lisa lifted up her chopsticks and pointed at a dish The dish she was pointing to was not what Jo Minjun expected Jo Minjun asked with surprise
“Sa[2]?”
“Yes I can feel that they put in a lot of time and effort for this dish I don’t knohat kind of herb they boiled with it, but it is quite mes out the unique nature of Korean food”
“What do you think is the unique nature of Korean food?”
“For Korean food, wouldn’t it have to be slow food?”
“…Mm That is similar to my opinion as well I think that the most charisyetang, for being a broth dish, they probably didn’t boil it for too long Chicken becoht have boiled everything in advance before putting the chicken in at the end”
Broths had a tendency to becoer it was boiled, so Lisa wasn’t wrong Coetables or pickled dishes that usually come to mind for Korean food, there were a lot etables could be seen as a type of salad, and Western cuisines used pickled dishes quite a bit as well
But broths was different If you wanted to find sos like seafood soup or stews, but even the seafood soup felt like it was only used to elevate the flavor of the upco main entree You couldn’t expect the clean finished product you get in a broth with a soup It anized courseelse would definitely come out after the soup
Anderson started to speak
“To be honest, I was never ed by a broth dish Of course, they taste good But I feel like so as you s it If it is thicker, you at least get a sense of it filling your mouth ……”
“I knohat you mean The issue is that you don’t really feel like you are eating so”
“Similar Of course, there are soet a satisfaction out of the broth itself I personally prefer the solids over the broth”
“Everybody would agree the solids are tastier……no, the more I think about it, if I was told I could only eat one of the two, the brothif you thought about it Jo Minjun knehat he would personally prefer He wanted soredient and wanted soredients as they hit his tongue Jo Minjun based his opinion of a dish based on that harmonization
In that sense, a broth was best at creating a harned most with his specialty, sauces A broth is really just a sauce that you could drink
‘……But why is it that I have never taken the time to dive into the tradition of broths?’
Broths aligned with his personal preference and cooking philosophy, but he had never officially cooked a broth before But it really wasn’t that odd In order to really bring out the taste of a broth, the nificant amount of time Since he came to the United States, he never had the time to stick next to a pot all day
However, the iotten about the broth dishes He did ith soups and stews every so often, but he was not very interested in theastronoetting about it was the sa it
Broths were a symbol of Korean food, and Korean food was the existence that taught Jo Minjun about food Although Jo Minjun hi dishes in a liquid state such as sauces may be the influence of these broths For hi about such influential co in the sky with your wings folded up
“……Broths”
Jo Minjun scooped up so’s broth and put it in his rance of ood co that such flavor could be brought out with those bitter herbs
He took a couplein his ear His own experiences and biases hispering to him
– Broths do not work in Western cuisine They think of it as a way for the poor people to fill themselves up It does not fit with your path
‘The deciding factor for the quality of a dish is not the origin, but the chef’
– But hoill you get past the prejudices of the people in this area? Sure Asian people ratulated by the Asians while being shunned by the rest?
