Jokbal: boiled pork as Yasik food (족발)

Korean food basics #3: Jokbal (Garlic Jokbal) has been released!

– It is boiled pork with pork feet but does not smell because of spices that take away the pork smell.

– In Korea, late night meal culture is huge and it is called Yasik (야식). Jokbal is well-known as Yasik food.

– Many people use delivery system for their Yasik food so they do for Jokbal.

– These days, upgraded versions are more popular than the original like Spicy Jokbal or Jokbal with cold vegetables. What I had was Garlic Jokbal (마늘족발)

– There are four ways to eat it.

1. With Saewoojut (salted shrimps)
2. With garilc sauce
3. With Kimchi
4. In a Korean wrap

Or.. you can be creative!
