    "Jangeo-gui" Grilled Eel /烧烤鳗鱼/장어구이

    "Jangeo-gui" Grilled Eel /烧烤鳗鱼/장어구이 Food Tour
    2014/03/03 16:45


    In Korean, "Jangeo"means "Eel";"Gui" means "Grill"...These Freshwater Eels were quite expensive in Korea, it was sixty five thousand Korean currency per kg.
    All the members of the family were invited for lunch at a restaurant by the sister,at "기와집/Kiwa-jip",which was located in Suwon. We had grilled eel...

    在韩文 “Jangeo”的意思是“鳗鱼”;“Gui”是指“烧烤”。这非人工养殖的鳗鱼,价格蛮贵的,每公斤的售价是韩币六万五。。。
    昨天,在姐姐的邀请下,全家一起前往位于水源的鳗鱼烧烤店“ 기와집/Kiwa-jip"用餐..

    Eels are popular in Korean cuisine and are prepared in many different ways.
    Eels are enlonged fish.Adults range in weight from 30g to well over 25kg. they posses no pelvic fins, and many species also lack pectoral fins.
    Most eels live in the shallow water of the ocean and burrow into sand, mud or amongst rocks.

    鰻魚是指屬於鰻鱺目分類下的物種總稱。是一種外觀類似長條蛇形的魚類,具有魚的基本特徵。此外鰻魚與鮭魚類似具有洄游特性。
    全世界的鰻魚主要生長於熱帶及溫帶地區水域,除了歐洲鰻(Anguilla anguilla)及美洲鰻(Anguilla rostrata)分布在大西洋外,其餘均分布在印度洋及太平洋區域。
    鰻魚在陸地的河川中生長,成熟後洄游到海洋中產卵地產卵,一生只產一次卵,產卵後就死亡。這種生活模式,與鮭魚的溯河洄游性(anadromous)相反,稱為降河洄游性(catadromous)。
    鳗鱼口感軟嫩,富含不饱和脂肪酸,对于软化血管降低血脂极其有利。一般鰻魚都不會作刺身及生食,這是由於鰻魚血液中含有毒性蛋白,必須經過加熱烹煮才能分解。

    Grilled the eels without adding any other sauces, only sprinkled a pinch of salt...
    原味烧烤鳗鱼,没塗上任何的酱料,只撒些盐。。。

                  烧烤后,用剪刀剪成小块状。。

                In Korea, sliced gingers are served when we have eels cuisine...

    Put a piece of grilled eel on a piece of marinated perilla leaf,place the sliced garlic and sliced ginger on top of it, wrap it together,that is how we eat...
    将一块已烧烤好的鳗鱼肉,放在醃渍紫苏菜叶上,再加上蒜片和姜丝,将它卷好,咱们就是这麽个吃法。。。
