BF2S Forums Nom Nom Nom What's for Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner?

I didn't like hotpot either. Maybe it was how my girlfriend made the stew. Korean BBQ is good though.

Recent KBBQ I had. They cut up the steak and stuff for you.

All you can eat but I think it was like $60 a person. Worth it.

Homemade kbbq from last Saturday

Been making my own pasta and grinding my own meats.



Homemade bread, pasta, meatballs, marinara. Next step: buying a farm

That meat looks good. I am really impressed by East Asian meat seasoning. You can tell spices came from there. A lot of variety.

the spices in all east asian cuisine came from south america. the main chilli pepper in korean gochujang was introduced to the peninsula by the portuguese. the only difference is that they ferment it because their climate is dogshit for chilli peppers for 8 months of the year. and then add extra local flavours like soy sauce, most obviously, or fish/shrimp-based ingredients for kimchi. before european contact with asia, the national dish of korea - kimchi - was actually a regular white, pickled dish. the spice and redness in everything that people now associate with korean cuisine is an import.

ironically, asians like the chinese and koreans have a fixed idea in their heads that westerners can't handle spice ... you'll forever get warned 'this is spicy!' when eating even the most routine dish there. it's like, please ... we gave you chillis. we squatted on india for a century.

kbbq in north america looks very sad, by the way. you gotta go visit korea, i'm afraid. highly recommend eating hot meat dishes with a bowl of ice-chilled cold noodles as an accompaniment. your palette will thank you.
