Program Description
Event Details
Join us and learn about Korean Cuisine, Full of Wisdom and Nature, the health benefits of Korean food. During the program there will be demonstration, a traditional table setting in Bangjja bronzeware, home-cooked full Korean meal, short film on Korean culture and more.
Korean cuisine is largely based on rice, vegetables, seafood and (at least in South Korea) meats. Dairy is largely absent from the traditional Korean diet. Traditional Korean meals are named for the number of side dishes (반찬; 飯饌; banchan) that accompany steam-cooked short-grain rice. Kimchi is served at nearly every meal. Commonly used ingredients include sesame oil, doenjang (fermented bean paste), soy sauce, salt, garlic, ginger, gochugaru (pepper flakes), gochujang (fermented red chili paste) and napa cabbage.
