Hongeo Hoe

Hongeo hoe is principal product of Jeolla-do district. We usually call it Hong Tak .
I’m not from Jeolla-do and I’ve never eaten

Hong Tak but I’ve heard that this food’s smell is very offensive, kind of sourish.

The reason for this smell is that it's important part of making course is keeping skate idle in vinegar. So some people can't eat Hong Tak because of the smell.

But this food is actually very high quality food and in Jeolla-do’s party, this food is very important part of party’s food. And people who love this food usually said It's hard to try just first time.

I really want to try this if I get a chance.
