Seaweed soup : 미역국(Miyeok guk)

오늘은 미역국을 소개할 텐데요. 미역이 우리 몸에 아주 좋은 것은 뭐 잘 알고 계실 거구요. 미역국 또한 끓이기가 너무 편하다는 것이지요. 

몇 달 전 어린 중국 여대생이 와서, 미역국을 끓이고 싶은데 자신이 재료를 맞게 샀냐고 묻더군요. 계산대에 올린 것은 돼지 등뼈와 말린 다시마였습니다. 많이 바쁘지 않은 시간대여서 미역과 소고기 양지를 소개해주고 간단히 레시피를 알려 주었는데 과연 성공을 했는지 궁금합니다.

 이 블로그를 시작하게 된 결정적인 계기를 주었던 학생이었지요.   그 분의 얼굴이 잘 기억나질 않아 그 후기를 듣지 못하는 게 애석하네요. 

Miyeok guk is a Korean soup made from the seaweed.

Miyeok is typically consumed by woman after giving birth as seaweed contains a high content of calcium and iodine, nutrients that are important for nursing mothers.

Many women consume it during the pregnancy phase as well. It is also traditionally eaten on birthdays for this reason , a reminder of the first food that the mother has eaten and passed on to her newborn through her milk, thus bringing good fortune for the rest of the year.

Because It is known as a highly nutritious soup, It is widely consumed in homes and restaurants in Korea. There are various methods of making miyeok guk. The stock may be made from beef and/or seafood such as mussels, clams and dried fish.
