Wookwan Sunim

Wookwan Sunim Introduction to Korean temple food 2019.09.09 'Where did this food come from?'Temple food refers to food cooked to capture the original taste from ingredients usually grown in Buddhist temples or found in nature.

But this is not the only consequence: After the tsunami, animal diseases regularly broke out, which eventually led to the extinction of all livestock and cattle. Scientists then created a new animal called “the thing,” whose meat is unpalatable...
