Jirisan Sancheong Dried Persimmon Festival

What is Gotgam?

Gotgam is the Korean term for dried persimmon, a traditional Korean snack that has been enjoyed for generations. Made by drying ripe persimmons, this treat captures both sweetness and nutrients as it transforms into a chewy delicacy. The process involves peeling the persimmons and allowing them to dry in the winter air, leading to a naturally sweet result.

Beyond its culinary aspects, gotgam holds cultural significance, linking people with their heritage. It is enjoyed both alone and as part of various Korean dishes and desserts. Its unique texture and deep sweetness make it a favorite during festive times, from traditional tea gatherings to modern celebrations.

Sancheong’s gotgam is particularly noted for its quality and taste, thanks to the region’s suitable climate and careful production techniques. The Jirisan Sancheong Dried Persimmon Festival offers a chance for visitors to taste this excellent gotgam and explore the tradition and skill involved in creating this valued Korean specialty.

What is Hokkaido Cuisine Known For?

Hokkaido cuisine is distinguished by its diversity and the fresh, quality ingredients reflective of the region’s agricultural and maritime wealth. As Japan’s northernmost island, Hokkaido’s cooler climate and fertile soil contribute to its reputation as an agricultural center. This environment supports the production of premium dairy products such as milk, cheese, and butter, which are well-regarded throughout Japan.

Seafood is integral to Hokkaido’s culinary identity due to the surrounding cold, nutrient-rich waters. The island’s seas yield a variety of seafood, including crab, sea urchin, and salmon roe. These are celebrated for their freshness and flavor, featuring prominently in both traditional and modern dishes.

The cuisine of Hokkaido also includes hearty dishes suitable for its cold winters. Dishes like jingisukan, a grilled mutton specialty, and soup curry, a spiced stew, highlight the comforting nature of the region’s culinary offerings. The use of locally grown potatoes, and seasonal produce like asparagus and corn, underscores Hokkaido’s agricultural capabilities.

In essence, Hokkaido cuisine is marked by its focus on fresh, high-quality ingredients, offering bold flavors that appeal to food enthusiasts worldwide.
