Hoe is a traditional Korean seafood dish that is eaten by trimming raw meat or raw fish. In addition to fish, it is also made with other marine products such as shrimp and squid, raw meat of land animals, and vegetable ingredients, but without any special prefix, it mainly refers to raw fish. It is called Sukhoe that is blanched by applying heat. It has been a favorite food since the Three Kingdoms of Korea, and is one of the oldest foods in Korean history. This is because in the early Paleolithic era, when fire was not available, it was not cooked no matter how it was eaten.
