Hello Maangchi,
I am going to be going to Mexico this coming May. Where is the fish market that you bought your fish from? I would like to go buy some fresh fish directly from the fishermen too.

That’s right, it’s called chogochujang.

maangchi, is the dip with the red pepper paste without soybean paste the dip usually prepared for cooked octopus or squid?

I think hoe seems right to me – hwe would be confusing to some English speakers as they might think it is “hwee” and “hwae” would make us think it is “hway” (like hay) making the “oe” part sound much longer than it should be. That is probably why “hoe” is so commonly used :)

Thank you very much! I love your politeness! : ) I checked out Wikipedia and a few Korean websites to find out how they romanize the Korean word “회”. It looks like “hoe” is used generally.

As you said, “hwae” may be right romanization? But if it’s written in Korean, it will be “후ㅐ”. I can’t type the word as 1 word. How about “hwe”? the sound is right, but it has to be written “훼”!
I prefer hwe to hwae though. Actually I posted my raw fish bibimbap called hwedeopbap long time ago here: http://www.maangchi.com/recipe/hwedupbap

It depends on the type of fish. The snapper that I fried in the video has very strong and thick bones, so there is no way to chew and swallow the bones. : ) You will have to treat the fish bones as beef or pork ribs! lol And the fish head has lots of meat there.
You can eat fish bones from crispy fried sardines.

: ) You remind me of my Buddhist friend who said when she saw I was eating raw fish meal. “How can you eat somebody else’ flesh!”

Yeah, actually the dog is the hotel owner’s lovely dog. I really wanted to feed him, but I never knew if the owner would like the idea or not. Anyway, he was digging in the garbage bin while I was being filmed! I found out when I edited the video. : )

I think you will have to use wasabi powder. I learned this simple method from my friend Yukiko about 13 years ago. Since then, I have been enjoying this simple method.
