Jeju Recipes

Jeju cuisine reflects the unique island culture of Korea's largest island, where volcanic terrain and ocean surroundings shape a diet rich in seafood and wild ingredients. The haenyeo female divers have long harvested abalone, sea urchin, and seaweed, which feature prominently alongside black pork raised on the island. Dishes like jeonbokjuk abalone porridge, Jeju black pork barbecue, and seafood stews showcase an island terroir that is distinct from mainland Korean cooking.
