Various hams in spicy soup! “Budae-jjigae” is popular with everyone.

However, it is said that the background of the creation of this Budae-jjigae has a sad history…!

Immediately after 6.25. During the height of the Korean War, when food was scarce, we were able to get sausages and ham near the US military base.

These ingredients left behind by US soldiers, so-called ‘troop meat’, were unfamiliar and greasy to us who were accustomed to spicy tastes.

However, when I boiled it with red pepper paste and kimchi to suit Korean tastes, it was quite delicious!

From this, Budae Jjigae was born, a combination of Western ingredients ‘ham and sausage’ and our ‘kimchi and red pepper paste’.

The reason why Budaejjigae in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi-do is famous is because many U.S. military units were stationed there.

‘Product of war’, common people’s food Budae stew.

Who can dare to guess the depth of the taste that contains a heartbreaking history?
