Korean Tastes

Have you ever tried Korean citron tea? It is so easy to prepare and delicious as well. I have not tasted it before until two years ago when a friend offered me a cup of citron tea. I asked him if it is a kind of Chinese tea. He said it was Korean tea and he found it in the Korean aisle[1] when he bought something in the supermarket.
He offered me a cup and I liked it. And I still drink it. When it is run out, I go to buy a new jar. A jar could enough for almost a month. Coz I don't drink everyday. If I do, I probably would be disgusted with it. But if you don't overdrink, it is a good alternative to coffee and black tea. It never can take the place of coffee of course. But it is worth to drink at times.
Well, let me tell you how will you prepare it if you mind to drink oneday. Firstly, have a cup and some boiling water. Take the jar of the citron tea and add some of it into the cup with a tea spoon. Then pour the boiling water and add some sugar according on your preference. And our citron tea is ready to drink. If you think that the peels of the citron can not be drunk, you are right! Coz peels can not be drunk but it can be eaten!. hehe Anyway, i would say don't throw the peels if you have asked me, eat them instead. That is my choice. Eating or throwing,that is also done according on one preference. Well, have a nice drink.
You are lucky,coz I m touching on this topic for you. Nobody told me about this delicious tea for a long time. Even though I have many friends from Korea. I remember when it was my first year in China, a middle-aged korean lady in my Chinese class, always talked about the fame of the Korean alcohols though I stated many times that I don't drink alcohol. She could tell me about the other things of Korea such as kimbab,kimchi or that citron tea instead of the things I didn't care. But she didn't do it at all. I don't know why but I always remind that alcoholic lady when I drink citron tea. :)
I love Korea and Koreans, so, I go out to eat at Korean restaurants at times. I like kimbap and kimchi. My Korean friends prepared kimbab and brought in my room last year. That was not the first time to taste it. Once, a Turkish friend who study in south Korea, came to China for a journey. We put him up for days and he cooked kimbab for us. It was not so delicious but was fairly well. :) Here is the link to explain how one can make kimbap. It is a bit difficult to find ingredients but you can look at least if you wonder how it is prepared.

The other day, after talking about the Korean cuisine, I am invited to eat at a Korean restaurant by a good close Korean friend. I am recently dealing with my graduation matters but we will eat at the earliest opportunity I have. I promised him to eat together. It is happiness for me to taste Korean foods. :)
Korean dramas, movies, people are very good and I have not been yet but I think Korea itself also a good place to visit. I hope to go to Korea at the first possible opportunity. :)

[1]For such Korean section in the supermarkets, only Korean imported products are put on such aisle and every big market has one to provide their own products to Korean population in China. But of course those sections have not been made for only Korean people, coz a lot of Chinese people like to use Korean products and such aisles are the result of a such demand.
