Honey Pig Samgyupsal
* Honey Pig Samgyupsal consists of thick slices of pork belly meat (similar to uncured bacon). According to a 2006 survey by Agricultural Cooperatives in Korea (농업협동조합), 85% of South Korean adults surveyed stated that their favorite pork part is samgyupsal.
Bul-go-gi
* Bulgogi is made from thin slices of prime beef. The meat is marinated with a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and other ingredients. This dish is served with a side of lettuce, which is used to wrap a slice of cooked meat, along with a dab of ssamjang, or other side dishes, and then eaten as a whole.
Kimchi
* Kimchi is the most common banchan, or side dish, in South Korea and many South Korean communities and locales. Kimchi is made of various vegetables and contains a high concentration of dietary fiber, while being low in calories. One serving also provides up to 80% of the daily recommended amount of vitamin C and carotene. Most types of kimchi contain onions, garlic, and peppers, all of which are salutary. The vegetables being made into kimchi also contribute to the overall nutritional value.
Doen Jang Jjigae
* Doen Jang Jjigae is made with Korean soybean paste and ingredients such as vegetables, mushrooms, seafood, and tofu. It is regarded as one of the representative dishes of commoners' food in Korea. Doenjang is rich in flavonoids and beneficial vitamins, minerals, and hormones which are sometimes claimed to possess anti-carcinogenic properties.
Health Benefits
The vegetables used in Honey Pig’s typical cuisine contribute to the overal nutritional value. Kimchi and other accompanying dishes are rich in vitimin A, thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), calcium, and iron. Health magazine named Kimchi in its list of top five “World’s Healthiest Foods” for being rich in vitamins, aiding digestion, and even possibly reducing cancer growth. Honey Pig hand makes its own Kimchi and is served fresh.
In Honey Pig’s Doen Jang Jjigae, there are linoleic acids and linolenic acids which have an important role in normal growth of blood vessels and prevention of blood vessel-related illness. Unlike miso, which is usually not boiled, Doen Jang’s efficacy still exists after boiling. There are several other nutritional benefits to Korean food in general because of its high use of fresh vegetables and herbs.
