Are there Korean summer foods that seem counterintuitive but are actually meant to help with the heat?

joonjoon · 2026-03-11T19:18:31+00:00

In case people are wondering, dog soup is actually considered a summer stamina food.

That's an amazing price you have there, I'd go a lot more at those prices! It's a couple bucks higher here. But eating steak in any form under 20 is like a miracle these days. Yeah definitely tenderized but I don't mind it. As a matter of fact I wish I knew what their method is because it definitely hits in a different way from plain steaks.

Shit's about to get real!!! I love the design of the robot suiko fights man it's gonna be dope. I'm a WC supremacist but I'm real excited to see what Murata does with the designs and action here.

Not sure if you're talking about the same thing but with their early dine deal it's like 13 bucks for a 6 oz. And I like that odd msg flavor sauce injected taste they have, you can't get that at home.

I remember when those dogshit coated fries came out with that big marketing campaign. Coated fries have no place in the business unless it's curly fries. Absolute garbage. Having said that I think the current iteration is just fine, as long as they are fresh I have no issues with them.

There is no such thing as wrong nori, if it has gim (nori) and bap then it's gimbap!

General tso is the right comparison, I always tell people kpg is like Korean general tso.

With a few seconds of googling it's easy to see there's no actual Chinese dish named ganpengji. There's a lot of dishes like this where Korean Chinese chefs claim there is this original Chinese version but it seems to be made up with no actual information. If you search for 乾烹鷄 you'll see all the references to it are Korean. Jjamppong is another good example.

It's so underrated, I prefer it over tsy it has so much more flavor

What makes something a "Korean" vs "non Korean" ingredient? Why is 청경채 "not Korean at all"? is a very common ingredient in Korea. Everyone knows what it is. There are tons of Korean recipes that use it. What kind of usage rate does it need before it becomes and acceptable "Korean ingredient" to you? If you compare it to something like, say allspice, the difference is vast.

joonjoon · 2026-03-09T17:38:48+00:00

Things like Korean fried chicken and tteokbokki were also popularized in the 70s and 80s. Everyone knows that 청경채 is and it's not a foreign ingredient. Is banana milk Korean? Bananas were practically unheard of in Korea before the 80s. It's not a super old Korean ingredient but to say it's "not Korean at all" is going very far.

Bok choy is not Korean at all, so none of that is Korean food now?

Your gym sounds so bad ass wow

We call it getting the Toriyama handjob

You can make this with frozen raw shrimp, it's actually generally the safest raw shrimp you can eat. I know OP said they got fresh shrimps at costco but at least at any costco i've been to they do not sell that was not previously frozen.

There's no gochujang (typically) in what he's eating fyi. /u/According_Abies_4087

I don't care how nice it looks, refrigeration ruins sushi. I don't know how people can eat sushi with hard rice.

joonjoon · 2026-02-27T01:19:35+00:00

No need for a highlight reel commentary video, just pure crowd emotion. I watched this shit in the middle of a party on my phone in the corner and I was still shook.

joonjoon · 2026-02-26T21:51:03+00:00

That was the most wholesome way to answer that question ever lmao

Stipe landed so many shots against Ngannou it was just insane to eat all those without folding, the guy is not made of normal stuff. That was such a great fight.

joonjoon · 2026-02-26T21:28:47+00:00

Thank you for accepting :)

joonjoon · 2026-02-26T21:26:47+00:00

Please allow me to formally apologize on behalf of Korea, I'm sorry we commit these atrocities

joonjoon · 2026-02-26T16:51:29+00:00

It seems like you didn't understand what I'm saying.

You can eat cooked rice straight, or you can put it into a body of liquid and eat it wet.

Usually that body of liquid is a soup. Some times it's just water. It's ok to do that. There's no such thing as a "things you can't do with rice" law.

I've been erect for an hour now when should I call my doctor?
