I’m doing study abroad in here without my family. I’m not very good at cooking so my mom wants to put me in host family house. My host family is all Korean so typical meals at my house are Korean foods. Everyday my host mom cooks for us but when she went out somewhere, host dad cook for us. Both of them are such a good chef. In my house we usually eat dinner around 8pm. In Korean, there are three consequences and must have foods in our dining table.

Kimchi Fried Rice |
First one are steamed rice and this is our staple food like bread. We can put any other grains to rice and make more healthy food. Second one is Kimch and this is one of Korean traditional food. Kimch is fermented food and is helpful to prevent to get cancer. Kimchi is little spicy so when I was young I really hate Kimchi because of spicy taste ate but I love to eat Kimchi fried rice. When my mom doesn’t want to cook, she usually made this because it’s very easy to cook. Even now, it is already quite popular in the other countries but I hope it would become more popular and delicious food by many countries in the world addition to our country. The last one is Korean soup(stew). Korean soups are made from a variety of different meats, fishes, and vegetables and we mostly eat with steamed rice. Koreans specially love a bowl of hot soup during the cold winter. However, soups can be enjoyed at any time as part of a meal with rice, Kimchi and other side dishes.
I mostly eat dinner with steamed rice, kimchi, soups and other dishes. I think these types of meals are really good for health so I really want to learn cook and introduce Korean food to my foreigner friends!
