rainy afternoon🌧️ stuffed peppers, seafood pajeon & makgeolli🍶 quiet village kitchen

Rain all afternoon, so we stayed in the courtyard and fried jeon.

Shiitake caps filled and pressed, peppers split and stuffed, batter poured over scallions until the edges went crisp. Someone walked down the wet lane for a bottle of makgeolli. Then we sat down and ate while the rain kept coming off the tiles.

No talking, no music - just rain, oil and the sound of chopsticks.
