Korean Food: Samgyetang[삼계탕]
Posted on Thu ,16/07/2009 by yeohcmI’m thinking to post more Korean foods in my blog as I’m leaving this place very soon. I reckon i might miss those foods very very much. T_T”…
One of my favorite Korean foods is Samgyetang [삼계탕] – (蔘鷄湯) which literally means “Ginseng Chicken Soup“. OMG! drooling now~~~
The main ingredients of Samgyeatang are whole young chicken and Korean ginseng. Sounds healthy food right ?? Yup, It is traditionally served in the summer which provides nutrients as you excessive sweating in hot summers in Korea. Particularly, most Koreans will take this food in 3 specific days in summer: “Chobok [초복] (初伏),” “Jungbok [중복] (中伏),” and “Malbok [말복](末伏),” which Koreans believe to be the hottest and most sultry of the year.

Btw, I just had Samgyetang few days ago. Yummy~~~~~~
