Korean Grocery Shopping: The frozen section, dried & fermented seafood, & kitchenware

[@javilon08D]

Can you do a grocery video series part 2? 😅 I just know there is so much more you can reach us! That would be amazing 😊

[@Maangchi]

There are part 1, 2, and 3. If you haven't watched them, check this out, please. www.maangchi.com/blog/korean-grocery-store-walkthrough

[@wanketta]

THIS is why people love Maangchi. Such generosity of spirit and drive to inform. Maangchi rocks!

[@jaitsadi-gee]

It's certainly ONE of the reasons. Another one is that her recipes are SO GOOD, and she spells it out so that ANYbody can make a delicious Korean dish, or meal! :)

[@bollymashup5136]

Not to inform, but to show off as if Korean cuisine and culture is the best in the world. In her other video when she spotted the Korean curry powder, she mentioned "Indian readers gave a hard time" as they said "we thought it's Indian curry". I mean, what's the hard time she is pointing here. Just viewers or readers out of curiosity would have asked. 🙄

[@neuweiher]

I love that korean proverb: even a single bean can be shared with 10 people. It's warmhearted

[@ShanazTube]

This is so helpful. I felt a little overwhelmed in my Asian grocery store and I was too afraid to ask for help lol. Now i have a guide. Thank you Maangchi

[@Maangchi]

You are welcome! Good luck with your Korean cooking!

[@dmatute6679]

Shanaz omg same 😂, I once tried to ask when I was pregnant on what to put on Korean short ribs ( this was before Maangchi ) guy looked at me very confused lol

[@funkyhatcat]

Sometimes I find it's easier to ask other shoppers in the same section than store staff! I knew I was finally comfortable when I was complaining to my partner about the expensive price of soy sauce, saying this other market had a lower price and a Korean grandmother started nodding along. We got into a good convo about best places to buy bottled sauces 🤣

[@Maangchi]

I'm so thrilled by your nice comments! My goal is to help you shop at a Korean grocery store comfortably. Now that all my grocery store walkthrough videos are uploaded, I can share my delicious recipes from my next video! Be ready to cook yummy foods soon. : ) Can you believe Polish and German captions were already submitted by our volunteer translators? So fast like flashlights! Thank you very much! Their credits are in the description box. If they have their own KZbin channel, let's encourage them by subscribing to them. Now English, Polish, and German captions are available. If you want to translate some captions into your language, you can do it here. kzbin.info_video?v=ph1ev8vKxJc

[@makemywayman]

It helps a lot ! thank you maangchi!

[@Christinandrearosamilia]

Maangchi dear, thansk for all the recipes and for all you do for us. I'd love to make and try kimnchi. I am only scared about bacteria .is it safe from Botulinus? Thansk so much for all

[@seronggaguesthouse]

Maangchi lovely and thanks for video.. very help me.. thanks

[@dougg1048]

Thank you so much Maangchi! I just started cooking Korean food, and I was very confused in my local Korean grocery story. This video was perfect!! It helped me so much. Thank you so much and 고맙습니다 ! And hello from Los Angeles - Koreatown! :)

[@zycote6001]

I want you to make sundae

[@patriciad.7309]

My husband and I just watched the four videos in this series - you did a fantastic job Maangchi! We would love to visit Korea some day, so things like this are very helpful. Thank you!!

[@hildaayoo6853]

You are who we see while cooking and while in real life interaction with audiences. There isn't two sides of you, just you maanachi ! ! Asante sana

[@Maangchi]

Thank you so much!

[@hildaayoo6853]

@@Maangchi 😊

[@SheerBibliophile]

I cannot Stress to you how Wonderful your videos are! So helpful! So cute! You are the best, Maangchi! I wish I could share with you pictures of my food I made thanks to you!

[@casmcctutube]

i seriously teared up at the end when i saw maangchi sharing all of the groceries. you can tell how nice and giving and wonderful she is

[@iceblue1457]

I enjoyed shopping with you, Maangchi. Thank you for the tour.

[@Maangchi]

👍

[@amandabarnes2620]

Your enthusiasm is so infectious. Thank you. I’m headed to my nearest store ASAP

[@TheScheisseMonster]

The ending was so sweet :)

[@donneone]

YES Maangchi, please make more shopping instructional videos for other Korean products, when you can! Cookies, snacks, bakery items, cooking tools, appropriate gift items for holidays and special occasions/events, best way to season or use clay/stone pots for 1st time use, are just some suggestions. I'm really curious how I can tell if one dried chili powder is hotter than another before I open the container, and how to season and care for clay/stone pots. Your videos are the best and have helped me a lot to try and make delicious Korean recipes. Thank you!

[@무무-d7o]

I was surprised by her sharing today. In Korea, many foods and ingredients are actually shared during holidays and family events. And it is called Jung in Korean. And affection means sharing a warm heart.

[@dirtykitty8008]

You have such pride in your culture! You are so wonderful! I am embarrassed, but I got tears in my eyes watching this! I become excited as well when I am shopping for specialty foods that I grew up loving! I WISH I could study to be your sous chef! I just love you and your energy! I want to go shopping in my Asian market right now!

[@Maangchi]

Thank you so much for your nice and encouraging comment! Happy cooking!

[@Maangchi]

Vietnamese and Greek captions were submitted by our volunteer translators! Thank you so much!

[@UranSakura]

I live in Koreatown Los Angeles for many years. I"m not Korean, but I shop at the Korean store almost every day to buy simple ingredients. I have no idea what to do with the Korean ingredients. This video series helps so much. Now I can shop with confidence and try to make some of your recipes. Thanks Maangchi!!!

[@duck_who_67]

백종원님 유튜브 이전에 망치님이 계셨다 ㅠㅠ 증말 민간 외교관급이세요. 매번 넘 잘 보고 있답니다. 망치님 화이팅!♡

[@gp4424]

I’d love to see more of these videos explaining grocery items! Very fun & educational! 😊

[@BobbinRoy3882]

Awesome! Thanks so much, Maangchi ! Your kind guests were so amazing people. Fantastic information for people of all cultures who love Korean cooking. Keep your videos coming! Thank you 😊 💓

[@Maangchi]

👍

[@Lou.B]

That was fun! I watched them all! THANK YOU!

[@Maangchi]

Glad you like them!

[@ji2976]

Your videos are sooo heart-warming! I can just feel that you genuinely want to help people out with their Korean grocery shopping. You remind me so much of my aunties and grandma who always wanted to help people, feed people and share everything with everyone! I love you, your videos and especially your jokes!!

[@greenmindedexpat2726]

Those people with you are so blessed... they saw you in the flesh and taught them about different Korean stuff... more to come... greetings from an expat from Saudi Arabia... God bless!

[@Nallari_]

하 유튜브를 꽤 오랫동안 봐 왔다고 생각했는데 왜 이제서야 망치이모의 유튜브를 발견했을까요 ? ㅠㅠ 요리 채널에 최근 관심이 생겨서 그런걸까요 ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ 아 진짜 넘 좋아요 ♥ 완전 한국적인 레시피들만 !!!!!! 자주 들리겠습니다 !

[@Maangchi]

격려가 되는 댓글에 대하여 감사드립니다!

[@RachelHarlowharlotbeauty]

Thank you Maangchi these videos are so helpful! My fiance is Korean and while I'm pretty comfortable cooking many different Korean dishes, there are always so many things in the Korean grocery store that I don't know what they're used for! I would love to expand my knowledge of cooking different side dishes especially using dried fish. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos, and I really hope you go back and do more with the other sections!

[@tammimccoy8233]

Maangchi YOU ROCK!!! I am so happy you made these grocery store walkthrough videos. I'm so anxious and can't wait till you do it again. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your channel. I wish you continued success and blessings.😘😊😊😊

[@hjpark8551]

hello, maangchi. always thanks for sharing your recipes. 영국에 한국 중국 슈퍼도 없는 동네에 살다보니깐 항상 한국음식이 그리웠어요. 특히 임신하고는 매일밤 울었거든요ㅎ 의외로 분식 떡 길거리음식이 너무 먹고싶었는데 사기도 힘들고 요리하기는 엄두도 안나더라구요. 그런데 망치님 덕분에 조금씩 해보고있어요. 너무 고마워요. 특히 저같은 타지의 한국인들한테 구원의 손길을.. 감사합니다.

[@Maangchi]

네, 제 동영상이 도움이된다니 기쁘네요. 영국 어디에서 사시는지 모르겠지만 의외로 많은 한국마켓이 있어요. 제 구독자들께서 이용하는 한국마켓 리스트입니다. 한번 살펴보세요. 그리고 힘내세요... www.maangchi.com/shopping/uk

이미 다 아는 재료인데도 망치님 영상이라 재밌게 보고 있어요ㅎㅎ

[@namak915]

It's so sweet that you shared your groceries with your fans!! ❤️❤️

[@retto1155]

Thank you so much for this series! It's been so helpful and fun!! The Korean grocery store near me is very small and doesn't have very many things but I feel almost like an expert after watching your videos! 😆

[@Myat-oh8iy]

I Love your shopping videos. very interesting and informative. Thank you.

[@Maangchi]

Glad you like them!

[@soshiangel90]

I really enjoyed this video series. It was really nice to see the differences between the ingredients Maangchi is talking about. Thanks so much for taking the time to put this together!

[@smithapradhan2003]

Lovely series Maangchi. You have 2 superfans in Toronto...a mum and her 3yr old son! My son loves your shows. His favorite imaginary play is to make japchae and have it with kakdugi D

[@miriamf.5442]

Hello Maangchi, this videos from korean grocery store were so helpful. Thank you a lot. I hope here in Germany I'll find all the ingredients I need for your delicious and healthy recipes. Please continue to share your lovely personality and your awesome knowledge of food with us. When I talk about you with my husband or family I say always: My korean friend Maangchi had learned me this. And they all know you now. I have cooked gaji namul and everybody loved it. Bye Maangchi my friend

[@Graggbjkfdx]

It was soooo fun It feels like I'm walking through a Korean supermarket with my friends! Thank you for your wonderful videos 😊

[@miklos.]

How sweet of you to share with everybody! Thanks for the grocery store walk through Maangchi!

[@BlacIsrael]

The ending was so awesome and reminded me of my grandfathers wife who is Korean she always makes sure we are fed and sends us home with a goodie bag! Korean culture is to care for others. I think other cultures should take some notes!

[@SweetPotato07]

Maangchi I've been watching your videos over and over!! I can't stop watching them and when it's safe I really want to see other sections of the Korean grocery store. Stay healthy,love you ❤❤

[@Maangchi]

Thank you!

[@Stormlaughter]

I have extended family living in South Korea until August. They've been there since last November. I feel close to them when I cook Korean food. Thank you, Maangchi!

[@spinelsun00]

Your directory helped me find a Korean market that's actually REALLY close to my home. This guide is the cherry on top. I'm so glad I found your channel!! I can't wait to try all the delicious looking dishes you make. Thank you so much!

[@mrs.valdez1387]

I loved this series!! Please do go back and share all the wonderful Korean cookies, snacks and candies!

[@tormentedsoul7852]

Thank you for creating this series. WOW I just loved how you showed us all the products and told us about the recipes you use it in. This video was produced and shot so well. I wish and hope that you will make more videos like this. I bought some of the products on Amazon. I also looked up Korean Markets in my area (San Jose, CA). I will be visiting them and picking up some items. I love seeing you intereact with your "Readers" and listening to their questions. Thank you all

[@deviantreads]

Love how easily you explain everything

[@agirlinjeans77]

You are the sweetest person, you shared your food with your shoppers. Thank you so much for doing this, I am going to my Korean store tomorrow

[@Maangchi]

Good luck with your Korean grocery shopping!

Thank you xoxo

[@nicoleslife6803]

I plan on making a small korean meal for my family of 4, I got a copy of your book and these videos will help me navigate the market ♡♡ I just want to thank you for all you have done. Love you Maangchi!

[@yaosmoments2468]

Oh love this series,how lovely you and your readers hang out together,great job Maangchi！

[@robindonnelly]

This series was awesome! I found it right after I thought how cool it would be for you to somehow do a cooking retreat at your home where you showed how to buy ingredients and recommended cookware.

[@willeats]

This was such a great series! Now I know what I'm looking for when I go to the Asian grocery next. You should definitely do a part 2 with another group for all the other things

[@lisaharms9387]

Please keep making videos we Love you and your teaching!!!

[@gillyp6919]

Thank you SO much for this video series!! I'm used to going to the Korean grocery and know what I need, but there are things i don't know about color, size, and best price. You answered my questions about how to choose between many options, and how to recognize best quality for best price! Now I know which things I prefer to buy already-made, and which ones I prefer to make at home. These are things a treasured relative would tell you! Thank you for helping me with patience and kindness!

[@Maangchi]

I'm so glad these videos are helpful! Happy cooking!

[@paulineannerodriguez]

Hi! New follower here. I learned a lot from you. Lately I have been really appreciating Korean dishes a lot. I will try those dishes you are cooking real soon. God bless and more power! ❤

[@pgacree1601]

Thank you Maangchi for sharing your shopping tips. Watching your videos inspired me to take a chance at cooking Korean dishes and I love it! It's made me enjoy cooking again.

[@cutekitchi8601]

The Korean grocery shopping videos are fun to watch. I was so inspired by this and I just went to a Korean grocery store. Because of your videos I had the courage to cook Korean food. I will get a copy of your book soon! :)

[@marinadinova1119]

Incredible helpful to starters in Korean cuisine

[@Jaqhnun]

this is such a fantastic series! I love watching you explain all of the different kinds of foods. Your guests looked like they were having fun, too! I'd love to see more videos about the other parts of the korean grocery store that you didn't get to talk about this time!

[@madelinnegron6744]

I love what you do with your followers. I will like to be there!!! Blessings for you Maangchi!!!! You are a very special person.

[@konkon705]

This was great! I really enjoyed this series as I was always feeling lost and overwhelmed at the Korean grocery store and end up buying the same few items all the time because I didn't know the difference between different items or which one is better. Now I finally know what the difference is with the anchovies which one to buy for my stock. I hope you do another series like this again! Thank you for doing this!!

I have loved this entire series! I already do a lot of shopping at my local Korean grocery store (Assi Plaza), but I have loved learning more. Thank you!

[@nikushim6665]

Makes me miss living near the west coast, where we had massive Korean and Chinese markets like greenvalley or 99 Ranch the size of a walmart. Every market i have seen in the mid-south has been the size of a shoe box with shelves loaded with expired goods.
