In February, South Korea's Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries selected abalone and monkfish as the seafood of the month due to their rich nutritional benefits that help recover energy, improve skin, and enhance eye health. Abalone, often called "sea ginseng," is abundant in vitamins and minerals, making it ideal for restoring vitality, particularly in those physically or mentally exhausted. Monkfish is low in fat yet high in protein and vitamin A, benefiting those looking to manage weight and improve liver function. Once considered undesirable, monkfish became popular in South Korea in the 1960s-70s as spicy steamed dishes, being a winter comfort food with its delicate texture and unique taste. Remember to thoroughly clean and prepare both seafood to enjoy their full benefits safely.
