The great national dish of Korea
ia cooksu. To make it, you plunge
q large lump of ice into bowl partly
filled with steaming vermicelli of the
endless variety, over this you pour
u portion of hot beef stew. The ice
c0ngeals the beef fat into little Islands
of grease, and you never know whether
the portion dangling from the end OF
your chopsticks will be Icy cold or
burning hot. The vermicelll which
Is very tough, is to be lifted To the
mouth with the Chopstlcks. Keeping
IL firm hold on it with the lips and
teeth you slip the chopstcks down to
lift again and take up the slack by
sucking.
