Cooking Class of “Samgyetang” (Korean Chicken Broth with Ginseng) 18:30 – 20:30 Thursday, July 26, 2007
The Seoul Help Center for Foreigners (SHC) invites foreign residents in Seoul to a cooking class of Samgyetang (Korean chicken broth with ginseng), a famous summer nourishing dish in Korea.
|
Samgyetang, made with a whole chicken stuffed with ginseng, jujube (Chinese dates), garlic and glutinous rice, may taste plain to some, but it has been Korean’s favorite summer food. As the phrase goes “Beat the heat with heat”, the oriental medical theory says that it is recommended to eat hot dishes made with high-protein ingredients in summer because our inner body actually loses a large quantity of heat and gets cooler as the outer part heats up. Samgyetang is especially good for those who perspire easily and have weak digestive organs. This special cooking class designed for foreign residents will help you understand the Korean culture and way of living as well.
