콩국수 Kong Guk Su


It's officially summertime and it's time to eat some summery foods!  One of my favorites is Kong Guk Su.  This is a cold noodle dish.  The Kong (콩) part of the name means beans.  It's a ground bean base with some cucumbers and sesame seeds.  Put the ice cubes in and enjoy a cool and refreshing meal for those hot summer days!

  1. Hi! Your blog was recommended to me by some friends who used it when visiting Jeju... Wow, I gotta say, the information on here is fantastic - it's so awesome that you are documenting your travels in this way :-)
    I run a Korean travel website, and wondered whether you might be interested in contributing some of your travel info? We have had 3 contributions for Jeju now, but none of the writers are actually living there, so it'd be great to get some travel tips from a 'native' perspective!
    The website is www.thesouthkoreatravelguide.com - if you like the look of it and would be open to helping, please email me - we'd be so grateful. The email is contactus@thesouthkoreatravelguide.com
    We'd put links to your blog on there and give you a contributor's profile too :-)
    Thanks!
    Claire
