Yukpo (Korean: 육포) is a type of po or dried meat, made from beef.^[1] It is a traditional Korean food, commonly eaten as snack food, banchan (food accompanying bap) or anju (food accompanying sul).^{[1] [2] [3]} It is also one of the foods prepared for traditional occasions such as pyebaek (formal greetings from the newlyweds after the wedding ceremony) and jesa (ancestral rite).^{[4] [5]}

Name [edit]

The Sino-Korean word yukpo ( 육포 , 肉脯 ) is a compound of yuk ( 육 , 肉 ), meaning "meat", and po ( 포 , 脯 ), meaning "dried meat or fish". Because beef is the default meat in Korean cuisine, many beef dishes such as yukpo and bulgogi are referred using the words gogi ( 고기 ) or yuk ( 육 , 肉 ), meaning "meat", rather than soegogi ( 쇠고기 ) or uyuk ( 우육 , 牛肉 ), meaning "cow meat".

History [edit]

Dried thinly sliced beef is usually called geonpo ( 건포 , 乾脯 ), while when the meat is pounded flat and dried it is called pyeonpo ( 편포 , 片脯 ). When the beef is seasoned with salt and pepper, it is called yeompo ( 염포 , 鹽脯 ), while the dried beef seasoned or marinated with soy sauce-based seasonings are called jangpo ( 장포 , 醬脯 ), pyeonpo ( 편포 , 片脯 ), sanpo ( 산포 , 散脯 ), or yakpo ( 약포 , 藥脯 ), according to the methods.^[6]
