Summer is for buckwheat noodles 기사요약: 여름의 양식, 메밀국수 맛집 소개 [1] One of the summertime dining staples in Korea is buckwheat noodles. Even when the scorching weather makes one easily lose their appetite, it is hard to resist the slurpable noodles that can be served either hot or cold. *dining staple: 주식 *appetite: 입맛 *slurpable: 후루룩 마실 수 있는 [2] The naturally gluten-free buckwheat contains abundant lysine, an essential amino acid which is missing in most plant-based vegan diets. It is also known to strengthen blood vessels and help improve cholesterol levels, according to multiple food nutrition studies. *lysine: 리신 (아미노산의 일종) [3] As Korea’s memil guksu — a type of buckwheat noodle dish in which the noodles and dipping broth are usually served separately — has gained popularity, there has been much debate about its origins. A vast majority of reviews based on historical archives today seem to give much weight to speculations that it is a modified version of the Japanese soba, which supposedly landed in Korea during the Japanese colonization. Apart from the memil guksu, Koreans have enjoyed buckwheat noodles in a variety of different ways since the Joseon era. *broth: 국물 *give weight to: ~중요시 하다, 비중을 두다 *supposedly: 추정상, 아마 기사원문: koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20220609000295 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
