THE ONE [TaeJin] (Prequel) ✓

Friends?

Here is something I wanna say: Firstly I am Indian and the food here is very much different from that of Korean. I haven't ate any Korean dish.

Secondly I don't know even how to cook Indian dishes so knowing how to cook Korean dishes is..🙃

I simply hate cooking. It's so boring and I can't understand it even if I read recipes, so even though for this chapter I try to read some Korean recipes to use but at the end of the day don't expect anything from me. Lol! I changed the recipe according to my liking so think of the dishes named here as fiction dishes and not real one 🤭.

Next day:

Next morning started the same way as last.

Jin was the one who made breakfast for them, they ate together silently, Jin then left for his office but not before giving Taehyung a forehead kiss though.

Taehyung's day went same day as yesterday too. In morning when Jin was gone he spent few hours in setting up his room as he still hasn't take out all of things from his suitcase yet. In afternoon for lunch he ordered pizza today too and enjoyed it while watching TV.

Then he called his mother and chatted with her for minutes.

When the clock hits 4 in afternoon he searched YouTube channels from where he can learn any dish recipe. Not because he wants to make good food, no. It's more for so that he doesn't make pizza in place of cake. Umm.. that's for an example he isn't going to make either of it.

As for menu he decided to make Kimchi (fermented vegetables) and Tteokbokki (spicy rice cake). That's all. No need of going extremely ahead of his limit.

He spent an hour in watching both the recipes.

After that he went to kitchen and checked if he has all the ingredients he need or not. Luckily he has.

He collected all the ingredients in the table and started preparations for Kimchi first.

He took a cabbage. The chef in the video said to cut it lengthwise through the stem into quarters, so he did. Then he cut the cores from each piece and then proceed to cut those quarters as told.

But he had never chopped vegetables before, the least he had done was to peel potatoes and peas. That's it. So, now it took him a lot of focus and time to cut one cabbage.

Until he was done cutting the cabbage he was already sweating.

Standing up he took a deep breath, took a large bowl, placed cabbage in it and sprinkled salt. After making sure that the cabbage is soft, he added water in it, covered it and leave it like that.

Then he proceeded to make spice paste. He took garlic, ginger, sugar and fish sauce, shrimp paste, etc that he needs for it.

Just when he was about to start making the paste he remembered that he wasn't supposed to work like this. He was supposed to make shitty food. It's not like he believes he can cook tasty food but still...

A voice in back of his mind told him that he wants to make tasty kimchi by himself since even though it's tiring he is having fun cooking.

But then his other part of mind said that he can cook later on sometime, right now he has to take revenge on Jin.

Unfortunately the other part of his mind win over. So, now he searched how he can ruin the taste of kimchi.

The chef has given a tip that not to use garlic too much, just 4-5 cloves, as too much garlic make Kimchi bitter. So, he purposefully took total 15 cloves of garlic.
