M-MART is a small Korean-Japanese market specializing more on foods specific to Korea.
packaged, prepared pickled stuffs way beyond kimchi..shelves of various kimchis (locally made?) canned stuffs, dried stuffs...fish, etc..some produce..
somewhat intimidating to the uninitiated..
I am unfamiliar with Korean food, so I had a lot of questions--which was a bit challenging as many items possessed a very little English on their labels and the English spoken by those working was very limited. But, very interesting, needless to say, and I will research!
A popular Korean street food, cans of silkworm larvae were on special
I found a website on Korean cooking that I like:
It's a sort-of K-popish primer friendly to those who don't know a thing about Korean food.
The above items are for a recipe for "Seasoned tofu pockets stuffed with rice" or YUBUCHOBAP. YUBUCHOBAP can be made from a ready-made kit, which are common in modern Korean and Japanese cooking. In the photo is a YUBUCHOBAP kit, consisting of tofu pockets, seasoning and a vinegar based sauce. The recipe from Maangchi calls for julienned pickled yellow radish, which is also in the photo. On the left is a shaker of YASAI FUMI FURIKAKE (rice seasoning), that I will sprinkle on my finished YUBUCHOBAP.
