Bibimbap

Simple is good, but sometimes, complex flavours can stem from simple ingredients. One of the most delicious things on this planet is a Korean staple. It’s a bowl of rice with stuff at its core, but that stuff comes together to create the most wonderful and complex flavours. Bibimbap is rice, topped with vegetables, meat (typically beef) and capped with a fried egg. It gets mixed up with gochujang, a spicy, fermented chilli paste that’s bursting with flavour – a bit like a fiery miso. Because of the bowl that’s used and how it’s heated, the rice itself crisps up in a layer at the bottom, creating a nutty toasted flavour that – together with everything else – is out of this world.

    That does look tasty, but I’d have to try it before being convinced about the egg on top.

    This is one of the reasons I want to move to S. Korea or Japan. The food is uber nice, and the people as well, and the economy, and the low crime rate…. Basically everything.
