Meet Bibimbap (비빔밥) easily one of the most well-known and beloved Korean dishes. So what is all the hype about?  

Bibimbap or “mixed rice with meat and assorted vegetables“ is a dish that can be made with endless variations! From homecooks to chefs, Bibimbap can be made with a variety of ingredients. Some prefer the dish with raw beef and raw egg yolk while others prefer cooked ingredients.  

One chef shares his personal story on Bibimbap. 

“As I was growing up, my mom used make bibimbap to get rid of vegetable side dishes (banchan) that needed to be used or when she wanted to make us something quick and easy. She would just take out a few sautéed vegetables, kimchi from the fridge, and add a sprinkle of seasoned seaweed strips. This simple vegetarian Bibimbap was home.”
