Kimbap

Kimbap, often referred to as Korean sushi, is a popular Korean dish that consists of seasoned rice and various fillings rolled in dried seaweed sheets (nori). Unlike Japanese sushi, which often features raw fish, kimbap fillings typically include cooked or pickled ingredients, making it a flavorful and versatile meal option. Common fillings include spinach, pickled radish, cucumber, carrot, egg omelette, and processed meats such as ham or fish cakes. These ingredients are carefully arranged on a bed of seasoned rice spread on a seaweed sheet, then rolled tightly and sliced into bite-sized pieces. Kimbap is celebrated for its delightful combination of textures and flavors, offering a savory, slightly sweet, and crunchy eating experience. It's a staple in Korean picnics and a favored snack or light meal, enjoyed by people of all ages.
