My son's mother-in-law prepared a Korean meal for us.
1. Live octopus freshly bought from the local market. It's ok - the kids had to wash their hands BEFORE touching them.
2. Octopus tentacles cut up and served raw in sesame oil. They are still wriggling so pity I can't load the video
3. The main meal. Like most Korean meals lots of small dishes
4. Her husband' has a collection of alcohol that the doctors won't allow him to drink. This is ginseng alcohol - ginseng steeped in Soju - a rice based spirit. Has an earthy taste. Reputedly great for male virility.
The meal included crab, Quail eggs, raw octopus, marinated octopus, soup, roasted kimchi, plain kimchi, seaweed, pigs trotter, rice, bean paste, strawberries, apple and Korean pear, rice cakes
