Emmy, Cornish game hens are chickens! They are a cross of two smaller meat birds and they are processed when they are smaller.

[@christopherestewart]

Yep. Generally between 4-6 weeks of age.

[@humbertoinguanzo5138]

I don't mean to. Everytime i watch Emmymade I learn much more than i had expected to. I like this! 😃

[@gregmuon]

I was looking for this reply. It's just a breed of small chickens.

[@labella9291]

Now a days they're the same as the cornish rock crosses of the regular chickens, they're just processed younger. Leave them to grow and they'll get as big as regular chickens.

Emmy, the Cornish hen is a chicken of a particular type that is harvested at 4-6 weeks. That is why it is so small.

[@Adiz9999]

I think that the reason why Korean may eat radish with it is because the chicken tends to be super greasy and the radish balances it out.. they also tend to drink beer with their fried chicken Also before Korean eat they say 잘 먹겠습니다 , which basically translates to I'll eat well or I'm going to eat well, and after they finish they say 잘 먹었습니다 / 잘 먹었다 which means I ate well I am not a Korean by heritage, but I major in Korean studies, so if I made a mistake please let me know 😄 Other than that love this video !!!

[@shenglongisback4688]

Your right the radish is too balance the grease.. and clean the palate as you eat.

[@yunseaweed]

I thought the radish was to balance out the spiciness of spicy yangnum chicken 🤣🤣🤣 that's how I always ate it!!!

[@advlia686]

I'm not Korean so I don't no anything about them but I found this really interesting.

[@anakelly76512]

I don't have pickled radishes. But I eat my fried chicken with pickles, okra pickles or pickled beets. I just need that sharp vinegar to cut that fried, greasy chicken.

Baek Jong-Won (Chef Paik) had this awesome show I used to watch called Delicious Rendezvous. He and three celebrities would create recipes using local ingredients then cook and serve them at various South Korean rest stops. S. Korean rest stops are known for their awesome food offerings. But his show was to specifically teach the public different ways to prepare certain overstocks of produce or unpopular cuts of meat that were specific to that rest area locale, as a way to help out the farmers of S. Korea and fight spoilage on food overstock. It is an awesome show, and so enlightening about Korean food culture. One thing I found interesting was one show he did highlighting local pork, he mentioned that Koreans love the fattier cuts of pork and how most people did not know how to cook the leaner cuts and so they usually never buy them. This is so opposite of how we are here in the US. Pork belly is easy to find in any grocery store there, here you have to really look to find a regular grocery that sells it.

[@AnimeGalxoxo]

I LOVE Maangchi! she was the very first Korean cook I was introduced to on KZbin and her recipes especially her double fried chicken looked so delicious that I've always wanted to try her recipes and ever since then I've been watching more and more of her. And she's super adorable too 😂
