Warum gilt Dodari Ssukguk (도다리쑥국) in Korea als der Geschmack des Frühlings?

Dodari Ssukguk (도다리쑥국) gilt aus drei einfachen Gründen als Frühlingsgericht:

1.  Seasonal fish – flounder (dodari) is at its best in early spring, when its flesh is firm and naturally flavorful after winter.

2.  First spring herb – mugwort (ssuk) is one of the earliest wild greens to grow, bringing a fresh, slightly bitter aroma.

3.  Seasonal balance – The light, clean fish and the fresh bitterness of mugwort create a taste that feels like waking up after winter.
