Korean Street Food: Bindaetteok

This month we continue exploring some of Korea's best street food. Today, I head to the market to sample one of my favorites: bindaetteok. It's another kind of Korean pancake, but it's made with mung bean paste and is absolutely wonderful.

Glad you came by Korea! Thanks for stopping in!

[CoolOhioGuy]

Agreed Bindaetteok is wonderful, when I did a fun world travel last year Korea was one of my stops had many good foods there surely would get Bindaetteok again on my next world travel adventure

[ThisIsSteveMiller]

Yup. In fact, it is a jeon (pancake)! It may be a little harder to find it, but totally worth it.

[ThisIsSteveMiller]

We should take you to one of these places next time.

OMG that looked so good.  I can't wait to try that when I arrive into Korea.

[ThisIsSteveMiller]

Give it a shot. I think you'll like it.

[ThisIsSteveMiller]

;-) Now you just need to bring the family out to try some more!

I had this my first evening in Seoul, less than one month ago, when I came there on a trip. Bought it in Namdaemun Market, really tasty :)

Same thing with me in Japan although my language skills are extremely limited. Heading back on Saturday and plan on having a fab trip just like yours.

[ThisIsSteveMiller]

Guess you had better come out this way!

[RobertOlddude]

I'm pretty sure I have had this, I bought some made fresh at a Korean grocery store not knowing what it was only that it looked delicious and I was hungry! ^_^

[perdomot]

Food looks good but the cooks reaction was priceless: "EHHHH? 5000!"

Bidaetteok is more thicker more heartier(!) version of Pajeon. Bindaetteok is like a deep dish chicago style pizza that has more toppings in :-)

[cybersalad]

Hmm--I wonder if I can track this down here in Koreatown LA. Does look exactly like Pajeon (my fave!)

[cgkitti]

I don't know if I've actually had this before. Maybe I thought it was just Pajeon. Hm.

[cybersalad]

Oh--wait, it turns out I have had this. It's one of the side dishes at one of my favorite KBBQ places in Koreatown. I just mistook it for a Pajeon! :)

I love this food.... It is very good with 막걸리. My Korean friend told me to not use too much soy sauce because salt is not good for you... ^^ They don't realize Americans eat too much salt anyway... :)

[flyhighgofurther]

Pajeon is more simpler, thinner than Bindatteok. Bindatteok is like Deep dish Chicago style pizza that has different ingredients in. :-)
