Korean - Cooking and Food

Overview of Korean Cuisine History
Korean cuisine is exotic; they are rich in seasonings and spices – Onion, ginger, red pepper, soy sauce, bean paste, sesame, vinegar, ginger and wine. Most Korean dishes are fermented (kimch’i, bean paste, and soy bean sauce) and dried (salted fish). Kimch'i, which is vegetables pickled with red pepper, garlic, Onion and salt, is one of Korea’s most common food. Kimch'i is served to complement almost every kind of Korean dish. One of the more popular Korean dishes is bulgoki or Korean barbecue. In this famous dish, meat is marinated in soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, Sugar and other seasonings.

Korea is also known for its “soup culture”, which developed over the course of its history as a way to get through famines. Maeuntang is a spicy soup consisting of white fish, bean curd, vegetables and red pepper. Twoenjang-guk is soup made from fermented soybean paste and baby clams.

Koreans have also developed a way to brew grains in order to make Korean wine. rice, Wheat, Barley, millet and beans are five such popular grains used for winemaking. Fruits, roots and petals of flowers are also used to make wine. In spring, Koreans much prefer wine made from azalea petals. cherry wines, ginseng wines, apricot brandies and pine tree wines are also popular wines in Korea. In general, the Korean diet is healthy and well balanced: it is high in fiber and protein, low in fat, has moderate caloric content and sweet. It consists mainly of grains (rice), vegetables (bean curd and bean sprouts), meat and seafood such as fish, seaweed and clam.

Like the Japanese, Koreans consider rice as its staple food and they eat it with various side dishes. Side dishes, which can be anywhere from raw vegetables, fresh water fish, Pork, Beef or eggs, are usually seasoned with soy sauce, red pepper paste or bean paste.

An example of a regular Korean diet is made up of steamed rice, soup (kuk), an assortment of pot stews (tchjge), broiled meat (kui), fried foods (chonya), raw vegetables (saengch'ae), raw fish (saengh’oe), pickled vegetables (kimch'i), dried fish (p'o), radish seasoned with soy sauce (changatchi), Pork (chokp'yon) and soy sauce (kanjang).

The number of side dishes on the table was once an indication of one’s status in Korean society, when a caste system was. Commoners had only 3 to 5 side dishes, while the rich had 12 or more.

Traditionally, Korean breakfasts and dinners are heavy and have many side dishes, while lunch is very light.

The ancient inhabitants of Korea were great at hunting animals and cooking them, as well as all the local plants. The food was an important part of life and pottery making was very developed, like in the Chinese culture. The agriculture developed because of the good climate and natural conditions and about 400 B.C., the Korean farmers migrated across the Sea of Japan to Japan. Korean cuisine resembles to the Chinese and the Japanese one, as these countries interfered a lot through the history.

Some of the traditional Korean meals are the noodles, the rice mixes, the Pork and Beef dishes and the sweet desserts. The noodles that are the most popular are: naegmyeon with hand made cold noodles, japchae with a lot of garlic, jjajangymyeon with black bean sauce, and the kalguksu with broth. rice mixes are topped with veggies and sometimes with raw eggs. The Pork is used for the stews and the thick soups with rice and soy and dough and beans are used for the preparation of defend desserts. Other lighter dishes include the traditional: pajeon and bindaetteok (pancakes) or the mandu (Pork, Beef, tofu and special noodles) or the tteok (a rice specialty with onions and oysters). Koreans drink liquors, wines and beer. The rice beverages and herbal wines are very famous: soju or yakju.

Preparation Methods for Korean Cooking
Some of the Korean meals include fermented veggies or aliments which are left for hours or days to marinate in salt and water, like the fish or seafood. But also, even if this technique requires some waiting sand more time, there are many meals that include raw meat: fish or seafood, raw eggs, which don’t require any cooking. Besides these, there is a wide range of meals that include many preparations, as they consist of a base, a topping and a dressing or a spicy or sweet sauce. The meat is sometimes ornamented with lettuce, wrapped in lettuce or decorated with greens. The stone pots are used to bring the food to the table, like for kimchi and for a traditional meal; the food is brought to the table while it is still boiling. A preparation regarding drinks is the gyojasang, which consists of a large banquet table, prepared for a special occasion. On this table, rice cakes, alcohol beverages and fruit punch are arranged. After the alcohol is finished, a noodle soup is served, to calm the effects of the alcohol.

Special Equipment for Korean Cooking
Many Korean chefs use charcoal fire in the middle of the restaurant for the grilled meats. The meat is usually served on a metal plate and the chopsticks are made of metal, unlike the wooden Chinese ones, due to the governmental measures to protect the nature. Knifes are not common at all, because meat and vegetables are already chopped or in cubes before serving. For the rice and the vegetables, that are put aside, near the meat or the main course, Koreans use spoons, made of stainless steel. The bamboo mat is used to set the Korean sushi and different leaves are used to wrap aliments or cooked meals. The Koreans families are seated at a very low table when taking lunch or dinner. The pots and the plates lack ornaments and they are usually white. The food is not served in big quantities, but it is arranged elegant in the middle of the plate. Cucumbers and other greens are used for decor.
