Morkovcha

Morkovcha (UK: /mɔːrˈkɒftʃə/, US: /mɔːrˈkoʊvtʃə/; Koryo-mar: 마르코프차; Russian: марков-ча),[a] also known as Korean-style carrots[b] or Korean carrot salad,[c] is a spicy marinated carrot salad. It is a dish in Koryo-saram cuisine, and is a variant of kimchi.[1][2][3]
History
[edit | edit source]
Koryo-saram (ethnic Koreans located in post-Soviet countries) created the dish as they did not have supplies of napa cabbage, the main ingredient in traditional kimchi. In Central Asia, where many Koryo-saram have lived since the deportation of 1937, the salad is also named morkovcha, which is a combination of Russian morkov ("carrot") and Koryo-mar cha, derived from Korean chae (채) meaning salad-type banchan. The salad was unknown in South Korea until recently, when Russo-Koreans' return migration as well as Russian and Central Asian immigration became common. However, it has gained an international following, being served in most cafeterias throughout post-Soviet countries, sold in many supermarkets, and featured regularly as an appetizer (zakuska) and a side dish on dinner tables and in holiday feasts set by all ethnicities of the former Soviet Union.[1][2]
Ingredients
