I love pulling from other cultures to see how women nurture each other with traditional foods after birth. Here is a recipe that is close to my heart because I gave birth to my first son in South Korea, and this warm nourishing bowl of goodness was served to me at the birthing center.
As the story goes, the history behind eating this Seaweed Soup came from ancient Koreans observing whale mothers gorging themselves on seaweed after birth. It just so happens seaweed is teeming with restorative vitamins and minerals like calcium, iron, iodine, B vitamins, and omega 3's which a mother's body can be depleted of postpartum. This soup is also enjoyed each year on one's birthday to honor a mother's love and hard work in birth and child-rearing.
Don't be intimidated by a few exotic ingredients here. There is really just one you have to get right: the seaweed. This seaweed is not the usual crispy salty seaweed snack you may be used to. It comes in long dry strands (you can see it pictured above). If you have an Asian market nearby, just go in and ask for "mi-yuk" or brown seaweed or sea mustard.
Now you have the right seaweed, this soup is easy-peasy and oh-so-satisfying.
Adapted from Seaweed Soup with Beef
4 cups of soaked seaweed (about 1 cup dry)
16 cups water
4-5 tbsp fish sauce (can substitute soy sauce/ salt to taste)
200 grams beef brisket
1 tbsp chopped garlic
for garnish: 1-2 tsp sesame oil, cooked egg strips, crushed dried seaweed snack, toasted sesame seeds, hot sauce
1. Soak 1 cup of seaweed in a big bowl of water for 30 minutes. Drain, and chop into small pieces.
2. Add soaked seaweed and 16 cups of water in a large pot and boil on high for about 20 minutes.
3. Slice beef into small, match-stick shaped pieces. Add raw beef, chopped garlic, fish sauce to pot and boil for another 20 minutes on medium.
4. Top with a drizzle of sesame oil, sesame seeds, dried seaweed snack, and strips of cooked egg.
This soup pairs perfectly with a bowl of steaming grains such as brown rice, barley, or a white rice and quinoa blend. Enjoy and feel the warmth of a mother's love!

After losing $450,000 worth of Bitcoin to a scam, I felt completely defeated. I tried several recovery companies over the course of many months, but none delivered results—most only added to my frustration and hopelessness. Then I found Swift Assets Recovery, and everything changed. From the beginning, their team showed genuine professionalism, transparency, and a clear understanding of how crypto scams operate. Unlike the others, they didn’t make empty promises—they took action. They worked tirelessly, kept me informed at every stage, and, most importantly, they succeeded in recovering my stolen Bitcoin. I can’t express how grateful I am for their help. Swift Assets Recovery restored not only my funds but my peace of mind.

I am Jimmy Laminger from Montana. One phone call was all it took, and I was scammed out of my meager savings. It all started with a call from someone claiming to be an IRS employee. He told me I owed back taxes and would be arrested if I didn’t pay immediately. I was shocked when he gave me my IRS information and address.
I was instructed to withdraw cash from my bank and deposit it at a Bitcoin ATM near my house. The caller explained the entire process and even told me which machine to use. I panicked and didn’t have time to think clearly. I deposited $16,000 into the ATM and transferred the money to the Bitcoin address I’d been given.
After the transaction, the calls stopped. That’s when I knew something was wrong. I contacted the police and the Bitcoin ATM company, but they said there was nothing they could do; once the money was transferred, it was gone.
I lost all my savings that day. What hurt me most was how real it all felt. They used fear, urgency, and official-sounding language to manipulate me. I want others to know: If someone calls you demanding payment in Bitcoin, it’s a scam, no matter how convincing they sound. Hang up. Confirm your information. Protect yourself.
Amidst all the chaos, I thought my money was lost forever until my neighbor referred me to ICC Recovery Services. At first, I wasn’t sure how they would recover my deposit, but they patiently guided me through the process of tracking transactions on the blockchain and working with the authorities. After a few days, they restored the deposit I had sent to the Bitcoin address. With this turn of events, ICC Recovery Services gave me hope and, more importantly, justice.
If you’ve been scammed like I have, don’t suffer in silence. Report it. And consider contacting ICC. They will help you, just as they helped me when I thought no one could. Contact: ICC Recovery:

I always believed cold wallets were the safest way to store crypto. That belief was shattered when I mistakenly reset my device and lost access to over $179,000 worth of Bitcoin and USDC. I had backed up the seed phrase, or so I thought, but during the reset, I realised the backup was incomplete. I couldn’t access my funds, and panic set in.
After days of trying to recover access on my own, I turned to forums and online resources. That’s when someone recommended Morphohack, a cyber recovery service specialising in blockchain forensics and crypto recovery. The team at Morphohack was calm and professional. They analysed my case and used specialised tools to trace my transactions and reconstruct the wallet environment. To my disbelief, they managed to recover access to my assets and $179,000 returned safe and secure.
It was a huge relief like getting a second chance. I’ve since doubled down on secure backups and proper key management. But if you ever face a loss like mine, don’t assume it’s permanent. Morphohack gave me hope when I had none, and they delivered results when no one else could. Their email. Morphohack@cyberservices. com
