  • can you do the same thing with fresh caught mackerel?

    like 45 minutes out of water kind.,.

  • @jvmangasep0 yes, u can.

  • Is this the same dish as Kongchi?

  • @ceeIoc Makerel (godeungeo) and kongchi are different but the taste is similar. kongchi is saury in English.

  • Hey papercuts777 said you make better korean food than him so I came to ask you how to make this like soup, but It was made out of beans. It had kim chi inside and had like a (vomit) look to it lol. Reall good, I put soy sauce on top of it and ate it.

  • @Mw2Recruit I think it sounds like kongbiji jjigae made with ground soybeans, kimchi, ...It's very healthful and delicious winter stew. If it's not what you are looking for, leave your question on the forum under general discussion on my website. Don't say the word,"vomit", my readers will be angry at you. : )

    2. Wash and drain a couple of times and put it in a pot with a thick bottom

    3. Pour 2 1/2 cups of water into the pot and soak it for a few hours.

    4. Bring the pot to a boil over medium heat for 10 minutes.

    5. Open the lid and turn the rice over with a rice scoop or spoon.
