I drove down to Shoreline and Lynnwood to buy Korean groceries. The first stop was Aurora Oriental Market at 15202 Aurora Ave N in Shoreline. It's across the parking lot from Old Village Korean Restaurant. I've shopped at this market since the early 90's. I think that is why I developed a taste for jeotgal. Jeotgal is raw seafood preserved by salting and fermenting it. Aurora has a self serve case with many kinds that you use tongs to pack into plastic
containers. My favorites are raw squid strips and baby octopus. I've also eaten
prepared fish intestines, oysters and clams. Naturally it's all very salty and not meant to be eaten in great quantities. I think a few pieces with steamed rice is best. Aurora Market is a great place to shop and seems to have better prices than the bigger Korean stores farther north in Edmonds and Lynnwood.
