Samgyetang 삼계탕 is a chicken soup made with a small, whole chicken and ginseng. It’s an iconic summer dish in Korea. As strange as it sounds, we Koreans eat this boiling hot soup to beat the heat and stay energized during the summer. It’s especially popular on sambok days which are 3 distinct days based on the lunar calendar — chobok beginning, jungbok middle and malbok end — that mark the hottest summer period. As the Korean saying goes, eating the hot soup is “fighting the heat with heat.” In my house, it’s a nourishing, comfort food which we enjoy all year around.
