Seoul Food #2: Naked Jokbal

March 30, 2007 at 10:45 AM | 0 Comments

Seoul Food #2 has arrived. Seoul Food is the food segment of Michael Hurt's SeoulGlow video podcasts. In this episode, host Susan Choung takes on jokbal, or pig's trotters. That would be pig's feet. They're big business over there.

So big, in fact, that there's a jokbal neighborhood in Seoul. Most of the restaurants have been around for decades, and each claims to be the first to serve the delicacy. Making its second Seoul Food appearance is the Korean "ghetto napkin," or standard-issue roll of toilet paper that's found at food stands and casual restaurants.

But the tease of perfectly balanced layers of pork skin, fat, and meat isn't over. This episode is "to bet continued." Stay tuned and salivating.
