Seven-Layer Burrito

3.0

by me

at the cabin

-Changchon, Seowon, Hoengseong, Gangwon, Republic of Korea-

solo

My favorite thing, more than all other things combined and multiplied by a gazillion – “gazillion” is an actual word – is getting alone time at the cabin.  This time, I just needed to do some urgent crap for my mother, like rearranging furniture, but nobody else wanted to go.  Thank you.

LUNCH

On the way, I dropped by Hwanghae Sikdang for lunch.  I confirm that it’s pretty good, though not as good as Goeup.

DINNER

One key benefit of solitude is that I can eat solo-type food, like a burrito.  Makes me feel like I’m back in college.

Here, I tried a whole wheat tortilla for the first time.  I think that I might actually prefer it to flour, at least for burrito applications.  The grainy texture and nutty flavor provided a sense of substance, elevating the wrap to an actual component along with the inner ingredients, not just a plain package.

The seven layers included: (1) refried beans + (2) minced chicken breast + (3) canned corn + (4) steamed basmati rice + (5) cheddar cheese + (6) pico de gallo + (7) Tapatio hot sauce.
