Inland Daegu, until the 1980s, was a place where fresh sashimi was not readily available. As a result, Muchim-hoe emerged as a local substitute, combining boiled squid, conch, field snail, and anago (conger eel) with shredded radish and minari (Korean water parsley). The dish is seasoned with red pepper powder, garlic, and ginger, creating a spicy and bold flavor profile. Today, Muchim-hoe is a beloved local specialty, known for its generous portions, affordable price, and the delightful combination of textures and flavors. It offers a unique alternative to sashimi, showcasing the ingenuity of Daegu's culinary traditions.
