Today is chobok, the begin of summer in Korea. Traditionally Koreans will have samgyetang or baeksuk (boiled chicken soup) on sambok days. After work, we went for Samgyetang at a Korean restaurant nearby home. There are a few authentic Korean restaurant in Mon't Kiara that serve nice samgyetang all year long. Daorae is one of it. Having the Samgyetang, reminds me of the delicious baeksuk I had before today. Baeksuk or dak-baeksuk is a simpler version of Samgyetang where ingredients are chicken, garlic, glutinous rice and herbs while Samgyetang is made with ginseng, herbs, chestnuts and jujube. The glutinous rice that absorb all the flavours from the chicken broth is my most favourite part of baek-suk.
