Shopping at a Korean Market

I'm back with a new Korean "adventure". Today I went to Korean Town after work and finally found a supermarket (HMart) I read about on Yelp and got some Korean goodies.


For the first time ever, I made a video to let you know about today. I thought it would be easier to listen than to read. I'm sorry for the video and sound quality, I didn't edit the video at all as the program I know how to use doesn't accept this video format. But, if you like it better with a video, let me know, and I'll keep the videos coming, and I promise I will learn how to use another editing program, so it would be easier to watch, and not as boring as this one.



These are the three things I bought:


As for the rice cooker, this is it:


It came with a measuring cup, so I put 1 of that cup filled with rice, and 1 and a half of the same cup filled with water. That's how I read it online: for every cup of rice and one and a half cup of water. I washed the rice well, added the water, put the lid on, plugged it in, and pressed the cook button. You can read all the instructions where I found them: http://www.wikihow.com/Cook-Rice-in-a-Rice-Cooker 

If you want me to try something else out, please let me know in a comment. 

Update: I had my dinner and the soybean sprouts was a complete failure. I have to find a way to cook it, as I don't like it raw. But the kimchi was excellent, even one of my flat mates tried it and enjoyed it a lot. Same goes for the Pepero.
