A collection of food that makes Sokcho Market open and run.

A market that you must visit at least once if you travel to Sokcho. Sokcho Market, which has been selected as one of the nation’s top 10 tourism markets, is always lively. It’s inevitable that you keep stopping at the food that’s been going straight from the entrance. Fresh seafood from the east coast, Sokcho specialties, squid sundae, Abai sundae, and chicken gangjeong are famous. Among the many foods, I introduce five foods that you must eat if you go to Sokcho Market.

만석닭강정 is famous for its famous restaurants in Sokcho Jungang Market. A few years ago, it became an issue of poor hygiene and suffered a major crisis, but after that, it restored trust to customers with sincere apologies and reflection. He is so concerned about hygiene that he was nicknamed “Full Stone Semiconductor.” It can be packaged quickly because it continues to be made and packaged inside without ordering. Chicken gangjeong remains soft and crispy even when it cools down. If you go to Sokcho Jungang Market, you will be seen carrying a box of Manseok Chicken Gangjeong one by one like a shopping basket, which is a true popular restaurant.

“강원도막걸리빵” is a self-made liquor bread made by fermenting it with makgeolli. Soft and subtly sweet bread can’t be stopped once you eat it. The beans on top of the bread as toppings are candied beans, and the sweet taste goes well with the bread, and even those who hate beans can enjoy it. Another advantage is that the so-called “resting smell” that comes from ordinary bread is not produced. Each person can buy three, and there are always many people, so they have to stand in line, but they are willing to wait. The remaining bread is delicious even if you defrost it immediately after refrigerating and freezing it or warm it slightly in a microwave.

감나무집감자옹심이, which sells only a single menu by Gamnamujip Potato Ongsimi. Ongshimi, a local food in Gangwon-do, is a Gangwon-do dialect that means “bird egg,” and is a food that is boiled like bird egg by grinding potatoes and mixing salted sediment and ground potatoes. The basic side dishes are mixed gourd and young radish kimchi, which are simple but go well with potato ongsimi. In a small jar, Ongsimi and a little kalguksu are mixed, and the thick soup is just as soft as porridge. Ongshimi has a great chewy texture unique to potatoes. If you add finely chopped Cheongyang red pepper, you can enjoy it in a different way.

속초새우아저씨, who only picks and fries king prawns that are more than 15cm tall every day. It is a fried shrimp restaurant that is always honest with the belief that “Let’s not play with food.” Even though it is fried and fried, you can feel the firmness of the shrimp. Frying powder, which is made by mixing fresh grains such as Korean wheat, turmeric, and rice in a golden ratio, has a crispness even when cooled. Shrimp gangjeong, which is quickly stir-fried with a special sauce in a cauldron, has a spicy, sweet and chewy taste.
