Core Ingredients- 200g Yeolmu Kimchi (well-fermented, for the best flavor)
- 400g Cooked Rice (about 2 bowls, served warm)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Start by preparing your rice. Measure out 400g of cooked rice (approximately 2 standard bowls) and place it into your serving bowl. Warm rice provides a wonderful base that enhances the overall texture and flavor of the bibimbap.
Step 2
Finely chop the yeolmu kimchi into bite-sized pieces. You can gently squeeze out some of the excess liquid if it’s very watery, but keep enough to retain its delicious kimchi flavor. Now, generously top the warm rice with the chopped yeolmu kimchi. Drizzle the prepared seasoning sauce – a delightful mix of gochujang, minced garlic, oligodang, and sesame oil – over the kimchi. Finally, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for an appealing finish.
Step 3
Grab your spoon or chopsticks and mix everything together thoroughly with a ‘ssik-ssik’ motion until all the ingredients are well combined. You’ll love the satisfying crunch of the yeolmu kimchi mingling with the sweet and spicy sauce. Your delicious and refreshing Yeolmu Bibimbap is now ready to be enjoyed! Dig in and savor the taste of summer.
