A while back (in Edition 2 of Things that Make Me Go Hmm), I wrote about how Koreans LOVE to eat a mix of onions, ketchup, and mustard when dining at the Costco food court.
It definitely brings a good round of stares from foreigners whenever we see Koreans with their plates piled high with mounds of the oniony mix. And let me remind you – EVERY Korean table has such a plate amongst them.
Well, I have to admit – the other day we were at Costco – and I found myself with a plate of onions, ketchup, and mustard. I know! I know!
Here I am mixing up my onions.
I would like to point out that the main use of these onions was as another “filling” to the dry, Bulgogi Bake we were eating (like a Chicken Bake, but with bulgogi – beef – instead). And the onion mix was just the thing to make the Bulgogi Bake taste delish!
Let me also point out that it was my Korean co-teacher accompanying us who piled the onions so high! I could only “muster” (hee hee!) a couple of bites at most.
Hmm…what will I do when I go to Costco in the US? To onion or not to onion. 🙂
Maybe you’ll start a new trend over here!
Hi, i read your
blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just
curious if you get a lot of spam responses?
If so how do
you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any
support is very much appreciated.
