The Seattle Times - THERE’S NOTHING quite like the craving for a Korean pancake. The combination of the crispy texture, salty taste, warm temperature and flavor-packed dipping sauces makes it undeniably attractive. Unfortunately, you can’t just run out to your local grocery store to satisfy that craving. So here’s how you can make Korean pancakes yourself.
There are many kinds of Korean pancakes (called jeon), typically made with flour or mung beans. Savory pancakes are an important part of Korean dining, eaten as an appetizer or side dish. Some of my favorite Korean pancakes are from Revel in Fremont. Revel makes traditional mung bean pancakes (bindaedok) that possess an earthy nuttiness. The restaurant has three kinds of mung bean pancakes on the menu at all times: the best-selling pork belly and kimchi, a vegetarian version and a seafood option.
