The warm spring breeze blows softly and the hips are hilarious. The energy of spring multiplies the excitement of travel. It's a good season to go anywhere. The sea full of spring breeze is good and the market full of spring energy is good. If you add seasonal delicacies that will enhance your taste buds in spring, you can add icing. It would be better if the food is not common anywhere. So I chose Seosan, Chungnam, where the sea, the market, and seasonal delicacies are located.

If you are looking for Seosan on the west coast, many will taste Jukkumi Shabu Shabu or Urukhoe. If you add one, it's a local delicacy. The food is familiar to the Seosan people, but the name is strange to the outsiders. You can think of it as Maeuntang because it is a soup that is made with Urug. I might be worried that it will be rude. But the soup is a light dish with immaculate soup. It is closer to North Korea or Hwang than Thailand.

The main ingredient of the soup is Urugpo. Urug, also called zodiac rock, usually gives birth in spring. Because you gain weight before spawning, you can enjoy the spring season. There are many occasions where you can enjoy spring Uruk, which is full of flesh. Remove the guts and split in half and season with salt. Then, in the spring sunshine and wind, they usually dry for three days to complete Urugpo.
Now that the main character, Urugpo, is finished, let's boil the soup. You'll need a supporting shrimp sashimi, and prepare radish, green onions, and chopped garlic, which are usually served in a clear soup. Add tofu, which will add a lot of richness, and even dry peppers to give it a bitter flavor. Boil soup with rice water rather than plain water to make it taste stronger.

In Urukukguk, it is 'one of the gods' that uses dried Urukpo instead of raw Urukpo. In the Seosan area, Urugpo was posted on a Buddhist memorial service, and it was said that the origin of Urugukguk was that the soup was eaten after it was finished. The dried fish makes the texture soft and chewy and doesn't have a fishy taste. The soup is so light that everyone can enjoy it. If you put the fluffy meat in your mouth, the flavor will spread. Once you drink a thick broth and bite a chubby meat, a bowl of rice disappears in no time.

If you want to taste the soup, go to Seosan City's local restaurant or Samgilpohang. In Seosan city, there are several local restaurants serving local delicacies. The local restaurants, Sanhae Delicacy, and Seosan Flower Crab are popular among locals.

These restaurants specialize in Seosan's delicacies, such as Korean soup and crab soup, so you can enjoy the taste of local food. In addition, depending on the shop, they offer other specialties of Seosan, including crab soup, stew, and taeyeon. It is good to taste various local delicacies in one place.

Samgilpohang is the best place to taste Urukhoe and Ukraint Soup against the sea. Samgilpo Port belongs to Seosan 9 View, and Urugukguk belongs to Seosan 9mi. In other words, you can enjoy special food in the beautiful scenery. Samgilpo Port, the gateway to the north of Seosan, is abundant with marine products.

The large Uru-shaped statue built in the port and the annual Samgil-po-Luck poisoning festival represent Uru-san's main production area. In Samgilpohang area restaurant, you can easily find the menu. In the ship sashimi restaurant, the specialty of Samgil Pohang, Urug is the main character.

If you follow the signboard 'Flying Ship', the ships are lined up on the sea. Buying and selling fish is no different from any other fish market, but the space is the sea and the shop is a fishing boat.

The items sold here are mainly rockfish, songme, halibut, flatfish, and liver. Uruguay and flatfish can choose between wild and aquaculture. You can sashimi and go to a nearby restaurant to eat for a small table. After eating sashimi, you can try the local delicacy instead of spicy soup.

After a meal, take a walk through Samgilpohang. Sculptures installed in various places and seagulls flying in groups create a sight.

You can buy Urugpo in Samgilpo Port, but if you go to Seosan Dongbu Market, you can find Urugpo and other seasonal ingredients. Seosan Eastern Market, located in the city center, is a traditional traditional market that opened in 1956. Being a central market in Seosan, I'm full of seafood and produce from the region. It's like looking around the fields and seas of Seosan even after a market round.

The fish market corner is filled with fresh seafood such as jukkumi, clams, oysters and wild crab. It's as lively as the ocean. Enjoy the fun of the market with a great deal. There is a restaurant on the second floor of the fish market, where you can cook and eat seafood from the market.

It's not just living seafood. As you walk inside the market, dried fish are a must. You can find various kinds of dried fish such as bakdae, flounder, and smelt. The most noticeable of these is Urugpo. Filled Urugpo is one of Seosan Eastern Market's most popular items. Aunt Merchant came to Seosan to buy Urugpo and try Urugup Soup or Urugpo Steaming. Once you're addicted to the taste, you keep buying only Urugpo.

Seosan Dongbu Market has many unique foods besides Urugpo. Emotions not common in other regions are noticeable. Eckloniagi looks like seaweed, but its color is clearer. Ecklonia vulgaris grows hard and grows wild, all of which are natural, with a rich sea scent and savory taste. You can eat it with oil like roasting, but you can just eat it.

At this time, it is better to soothe soy sauce. Since soothe is mainly produced in Seosan, you can buy it all at the market until you can soothe it. Let's buy one more before we leave the market and buy it.

Grandmother Hotteok. If you enter the market place from the parking lot of the market, you will see the trade name 'Old Bakery'. You can feel the 'force' from the hotteok plate like the green drum. These days, it's hard to see these hot cakes. The oil is lightly brewed with a very light coat. The secret to the taste is the dough made with makgeolli and acorn jelly instead of chemical additives. The chewy and delicious taste is attractive. It is also fun to see the skillful work of grandmothers who have worked for decades.

There is another famous hot rice cake at Seosan Dongbu Market. If you enter the alley where Sundae Gukbap and Kalguksu are gathered to the side of the direct market place, you will see 'Market aid Ho Tteok'. This is also a decades old hotteok house. Seosan is a shop where locals chew on their memories. The cast iron pan and the pot lid are impressive. Bake it in a pan, cover it with a pot, and steam it slightly until it is cooked. It uses less oil and makes the rice cake taste lighter. In both houses, two hot cakes cost 1,000 won. It is a good price. After eating a bowl of soup, enjoy a hot cake of Seosan Dongbu Market as a dessert.
