Yoon Jumo steps in amid "Salty" debate, Kim Yong-bin's commotion over seasoning geotjeori

In the first episode of 'Trot Kitchen: Traveling Dinner Show,' which was conducted in inclement rainy weather, the cast members engaged in a squabble over seasoning during the cooking process.

Urgent preparations on a rainy day and the chefs' menu composition

According to the video of the first episode of the TVCHOSUN JOY variety program 'Trot Kitchen: Traveling Dinner Show,' the cast members began cooking in an urgent situation with many things to prepare, such as rainy weather conditions and electrical testing. With 2 hours given, the cast finalized the menu and entered full-scale cooking.

The menu consisted of gochujang-jjigae jjageuli, boiled pork (suyuk), and accompanying geotjeori, as well as sweet and sour pork (tangsuyuk) using goji berries. Kim Yong-bin was in charge of green onion kimchi and geotjeori, while Yoon Jumo added depth to the dishes using ingredients such as 3-year-old soybean paste he made himself and glutinous rice gochujang made with rice cakes. Yoon Jumo used a mixture of 3-year-old soybean paste and freshly ground soybean paste. Kim Yong-bin demonstrated the process of coating meat in batter and frying it to make the tangsuyuk.

During the process of preparing the geotjeori seasoning, recipes were shared, such as adding white rice so the seasoning sticks well or adding the green part of the radish to add a refreshing taste. Additionally, the process of grinding salted shrimp into the seasoning was also carried out.

"Salty" vs "Not Salty": Kim Yong-bin and Yoon Jumo's debate over geotjeori

While the cooking was in progress, a difference of opinion arose among the cast regarding the seasoning of the geotjeori made by Kim Yong-bin. Those who tasted the geotjeori made by Kim Yong-bin showed positive reactions, saying it tasted like "mom's geotjeori," but criticisms followed that the seasoning was salty.

In the video, the cast members showed a confrontation over the seasoning of the geotjeori, arguing "it's salty" and "it's not salty." In particular, when those who tasted the food made by Kim Yong-bin said "it's salty," Kim Yong-bin countered with "it's not salty," sparking a debate. In this process, the situation unfolded as Yoon Jumo intervened. When the opinion "it's salty" emerged during the process of checking the seasoning of the food made by Kim Yong-bin, a scene was captured where Yoon Jumo personally tasted it and gave advice to resolve the issue.

The cast moved busily to complete the dish, such as adding more plum syrup or modifying the seasoning to neutralize the salty taste. Kim Yong-bin finished the cooking by putting the completed geotjeori in the refrigerator to age it.
