Anchovy (dried) 멸치
Anchovy is one of the most frequently used ingredients in Korean cooking, especially for stews and soups. Koreans usually use dried anchovy to make broth (stock) or side dishes, but they also use fresh (raw) ones to make pickled (fermented) fish. Since it is mainly composed of calcium, anchovy is also known as "King of Calcium" in Korea. The ways of cooking anchovy vary depending on its size. Big ones (called "Dasi-myulchi" in Korean) are usually used for broth and small ones ("Bokkeum-myulchi") for side dishes. Dried anchovy can be also served without cooking as a snack.
