    Today, we show you how to grill Gulbi at home! Gulbi is the Korean term for slightly-dried Yellow Corvina. It's a staple in Korean households and I want to introduce a few tips on how to prep and cook this gulbi at home - without any of the smell!

      If you cook it yourself or get it at a restaurant they will serve these fish much more fresh and instead of dry it will be moist and smoky. It's literally one of the best fish experiences. Classic fish over the fire fish taste without too many flavors.

    In Poland we have a similar way to get rid of fish bones, but instead of rice it's a piece of bread.
    Also in many families we eat the fish with our hands, so before we might put a fish bone into our mouth we can already feel it with our fingers, kind of a double safety.

    Ok, so I went to the Korean market and they didn't have this exact fish, but they had silver croaker. A little bit bigger, but darn close. Already cleaned and degutted, descaled and shrink wrapped. I was pretty scared. Have recently had a cod worm episode but am trying to get more friendly with fish. So the parchment paper thing worked so well, smell was very mild. The rice vinegar also helped. The skin was amazing and husband and I sort of fought over it. That fish was amazing. The flesh was so firm and delicious and sweet! We made that sound your girlfriend made in the background when were eating it - so glad I trusted you! Fantastic recipe. Only thing we added was liberal sprinkle of garlic powder, because we put that on everything. Thank you!

      i love reading about foods even if i never plan on trying to cook them because they do tell you alot about the culture that invented them. You'd be surprised at how much foods influences culture and vice versa. For example: one theory of why Europe has a more individualistic culture compared to Asia's more communal culture is that Europeans relied more on live stock and small scale farms while Asia relied heavily on rice, and rice can get you a much better return on investment in terms of calories when you farm it in paddies, but those are impractical for small scale farms which incentivized communities banding together and for larger families to form rather than break up. Another theory is that one of the things that lead to the Dutch's early dominance at trade was thanks to their love of saurkraut which prevented scurvy and helped keep electrolytes balanced, making long distance voyages safer and easier.

    Unfortunately, it is impossible to find yellow corvina fish in our country. nevertheless, I think it may be similar taste with corvina nigra or red mullet fish. Many thanks for the vinegar / oil mixture and paper tip. I usually prefer to bake in the oven, next time I will try it with your technique. let me make a recommendation; In our kitchen, the best side dish with fish is the salad, and I suggest you try the onion salad.
    Onions are peeled and cut into two and finely chopped 1 millimeter. Salt and lemon are added in a deep bowl and onions are squeezed and softened like kneading dough. Olive oil is poured over and taken to the service plate. Finally, sumac and chili peppers are served by sprinkling.
