Korean food with cheese: Korean snacks with simple korean cheese

Do you love Korean snacks with cheese? It's high time to pack your stuff and head to South Korea where cheese flavor is not only limited to any Korean snack!

Korean cheese has become a special ingredient to level up Korean street food and traditional food among Korean restaurants and food stalls. Cheese in various Asian dishes may sound surprising, but South Korean food with cheese may be the most delectable food experience you can get!

Why Do Koreans Put Cheese On Everything?

Most Korean snacks and food are quite spicy. With Korean cheese, it reduces the spiciness of the spiciest Korean food. Right now, you can see students head to the nearest convenience stores and get themselves spicy Korean noodles and other Korean snacks topped with Korean cheese! 

Korean Food with Cheese: 7 Korean Snacks for Korean Cheese Lovers! 

1. Cheese Dakgalbi

Let's start with a popular Korean food with cheese called "Dakgalbi." The Korean dish has marinated chicken in chili pepper paste base sauce, vegetables, and rice cakes. 

If you already love Dalkalbi itself, you can level up your Korean food experience by topping it with Korean cheese slices! Let it melt on top of the Dalkalbi, and you will start scraping the cheese off the sides of the pan. It is like another version of your typical Korean cheese rice cake street food.

2. Octopus and Fondue
