Korean Food: Roll Me Up A Kimbap

Submitted by on

-= Please Like, Comment, and Subscribe =- My favorite food in Korea is the kimbap (김밥), although with the new romanization rules, it's now written gimbap! It's a snack and a meal that isn't native to Korea. It was introduced by the Japanese during the occupation period as the futomaki. Gimbaps are made from rice (bap/밥). The gim (seaweed/김) is used to roll the rice and other ingredients into a tight package and then is sliced into bite-sized pieces for consumption. The rice is typically lightly seasoned with a little salt and oil, giving it a slightly different flavor than if ordering rice with a meal. Typical ingredients also include fish cakes, imitation crab meat, egg, radish, ham, carrots, spinach, and cucumbers. -= WEB SITES =- Twitter: http://twitter.com/qiranger Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/qiranger Blog: http://qiranger.com The Travel Channel: http://youtube.com/qiranger The Vlog Channel: http://youtube.com/theqirangervlog Podcast: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-qiranger-adventures/id451881376
