Every country has different hangover food. When I first moved to Australia, l was surprised when my friends were all looking for pizza as a hangover cure when my stomach was looking for a bowl of spicy Korean soup. Pizza can be a good hangover food option for me now since I have limited Korean food options where I live, but I know my stomach is really looking for \ud574\uc7a5\uc74c\uc2dd (hae-jang-eum-sik<\/strong>: hangover food). As I have been viscerally missing Korean food, I hope I can console my stomach by talking about them with you.<\/p>\n

  1. \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c\uad6d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c (kong-nah-mul<\/strong>: Bean sprouts) is a common \ubc18\ucc2c (banh-chanh<\/strong>: side dish) \uc7ac\ub8cc (jae-ryoe<\/strong>: ingredients) in Korean cuisine. \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c\uad6d(kong-nah-mul<\/strong>-gook: Bean sprouts soup) is particularly good for hangover because those yellow bean sprouts contain abundant asparagine and vitamins which help break down alcohol.<\/p>\n

    As you probably guessed, \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c\uad6d is a soup made of \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c. It is more of a clear broth than a soup, which is usually served hot. Most Koreans add red pepper flakes to make the broth \uce7c\uce7c\ud558\ub2e4 (kahl-kahl-hah-dah<\/strong>: spicy, but refreshing). The hot temperature of the broth is supposed to help with faster blood circulation as the body temperature increases with the consumption of hot broth. Whether Koreans knew about the fact or not, most Korean hangover food options are hot soups, instead of consuming cold food. \u00a0If you don\u2019t like hot food for hangover, you can eat \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c\uad6d cold as well.<\/p>\n

    1. \uc120\uc9c0\ud574\uc7a5\uad6d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If I remember correctly from a study done in the past, Korea has one of the world\u2019s highest alcohol consumption per capita. Therefore, we have \ud574\uc7a5\uad6d (hae-jang-gook<\/strong>: hangover soup). It literally means a bowl of hangover soup and most \ud574\uc7a5\uad6d <\/strong>is served in a \ub69d\ubc30\uae30 (<\/strong>ttukbaegi<\/strong>: earthen pot).<\/p>\n

      \ud574\uc7a5\uad6d can have different names depending on the main ingredients. If \ucf69\ub098\ubb3c is the principle ingredient of the soup, it is mostly anchovy broth-based soup. If \ud669\ud0dc (hwang-tae<\/strong>: dried fish Pollak) is the main of the soup, it is mostly \ud669\ud0dc broth-based. \ubf08\ud574\uc7a5\uad6d (ppyue-hae-jang-gook<\/strong>: bone broth hangover soup) \u00a0is bone broth based \ud574\uc7a5\uad6d. Names of \ud574\uc7a5\uad6d can be changed depending on the main \uc7ac\ub8cc.<\/p>\n

      However, I am going to introduce you to \uc120\uc9c0\ud574\uc7a5\uad6d (sun-jee-hae-jang-gook<\/strong>: blood clot hangover soup), which is somehow hard to find in areas where I am living. It is one of the \uc11c\ubbfc\uc74c\uc2dd (seo-min-eum-sik<\/strong>: foods that ordinary people eat) in Korea and one of my favorite Korean soups. \uc120\uc9c0(sun-jee:<\/strong>blood clot) is clotted blood from cow or pig, served fully cooked and possessing a gelatin-like texture. \uc120\uc9c0\ud574\uc7a5\uad6d is mainly seasoned with \ub41c\uc7a5 (deon-jang<\/strong>: soybean paste), but it can be spicy due to a mixture of other Korean condiments. As far as I know, beef broth is used for the soup. Some of you may be hesitant to try because of the lumps of blood in the soup, but you will be addicted to this special hangover soup once you taste it.<\/p>\n

      I still have lists of other Korean hangover cures to talk about for next time. Until then, I hope that you will try one of these soups if you ever have the opportunity. Although I am adding a friendly reminder to you. You don\u2019t need to drink before you taste them. They are simply soul quenching good food.<\/p>\n
