Army Stew is literally the definition of a “throw whatever you have in a pot and cook it” stew. It came to existence literally because after the Korean War, Americans left so much food left behind in army bases, the locals that raided the pantries gathered things ranging from hot dogs, to baked beans, to tofu and instant noodles. Everything that was found was thrown into broth made from the instant noodle packets left behind.

I don't know man, those sausages look averaged sized to me, and they probably have a good personality too.

Finally, i saw someone can cook Korean meal correctly.

[Yeemod]

Wow! I would never think to mix all of those ingredients. Love your recipes. Thank you!

It's so good. Literally anything you want in there. We've done it with Spam, rotisserie chicken and some leftover pork loin. Literally throw any meats in there and it's going to be so good.

You have no idea how good this is after a two-week training exercise from the old Korean men makes it for you in a little pop-up tent. 😊

There are many versions of the Budae Jjigae origin story. Some say Korean civilian contractors working with Americans had access to spam and beans and would bring them home. Other versions say the starving locals would go dumpster diving for scraps. And the least popular version is that actually it was the American GIs who took their own food supply and invented a fusion soup using local Korean ingredients like pepper paste/flakes, garlic, etc.

I love how you say “quick” like it didn’t take nearly a hour to make 😂

[cafouyette]

I'm enjoying my simpler version right now, without sausages, cheese nor beans. Next time I'll swap the Spam for more mushrooms.
May not be the real thing, but this is soooo delicious !

Fuck Brandy. I knew about all the housing stuff but now the car stuff too? 😭 I wish I lived close so you could stay with me for two weeks. Ony would love it. You have such a good spirit about this.. looking for reasons and lessons. Keep hold of that and know that this is temporary. You have so many people in your corner we won’t let you lose your mind or fail. I for one am excited to see how this year plays out because you always make it interesting and relatable.Interested to see how the farm sitting goes maybe you will find your calling 🖤 here for you whenever you need to talk!!! Love the shirt by the way 🤣
