Korean Seafood Scallion Pancakes, or Haemul Pajeon, are a delicious and popular Korean dish. These savory pancakes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, packed with a flavorful mix of seafood and fresh scallions. The batter is made with a combination of flour and rice flour for the perfect texture. Served with a tangy soy dipping sauce, these pancakes make for an excellent appetizer, side dish, or even a light meal. They're especially enjoyable on rainy days, as it's a Korean tradition to eat pajeon when it rains.
