Kongnamul
Soybean sprout is a culinary vegetable grown by sprouting soybeans. It can be grown by placing and watering the sprouted soybeans in the shade until the roots grow long. Soybean sprouts are extensively cultivated and consumed in Asian countries. History It is assumed that soybean sprouts have been eaten since the Three Kingdoms of Korea. Records of ''kongnamul'' cultivation are found in an early 13th century medical book, '' Emergency Folk Medicine Remedies'', published in Goryeo. The book states that in 935, during the foundation of Goryeo, a Taebong general, Bae Hyeon-gyeong, offered soybean sprouts to starving soldiers. Cooking methods of soybean sprout dishes are listed in ''Farm Management'', a Joseon farming and living book.

The small, black to brown earthenware vessel is a cookware/serveware used for various ''jjigae'' (stew), ''gukbap'' (soup with rice), or other boiled dishes in Korean cuisine. As a ''ttukbaegi'' retains heat and does not cool off as soon as removed from the stove, stews and soups in ''ttukbaegi'' usually arrive at the table at a bubbling boil. History The Ttukbaegi dates from the Goryeo Dynasty and has been widely used from the Joseon Dynasty up to the present day. In the Goryeo-period poem of Lee Dal Chung (), the phrase "White-makgeolli is brought to the Ttukbaegi" indicates the existence and common use of Ttukbaegi. Considering that Lee Dal Chung was a figure of the Goryeo Dynasty, it can be confirmed that Ttukbaegi was already made and used during the Goryeo Dynasty.
