With the ongoing quest for Korean Cuisine excellence I tried another recipe.  This was dish was explained to me as the Korean version of spaghetti.  You have noodles (or you can use rice) but instead of having a tomato based sauce you have black bean paste.  The secret ingredient to this recipe is peanut butter (shhh... don't tell!)  But I like it because you can put whatever vegetables in it as well.  We used pork loin instead of pork belly (couldn't find that at Meijer) and added carrots to it.  I like the daikon (Korean radish) but it is pretty strong.  I was pretty pumped about this recipe find as well!

She just went dove right in

She was real proud of herself after dinner... which ended in a bath and a load of laundry
