Bibimbap is a traditional Korean rice dish that is served topped with meat and assorted vegetables then mixed with a spicy gochujang sauce. The combination of spicy, savory and slightly sweet flavors with a variety of textures that come from different vegetables and meat makes this one of the most popular Korean dish all over the world.<\/em><\/p>\n

As a child, I was not a fan of bibimbap… because I thought there were too many chewy vegetables like kongnamul (soybean sprouts), gosari (fiddleheads) and doraji (bellflower roots)…and I think I choked on those stringy veggies at least 3 times!! \ud83d\ude30\ud83d\ude35HAHAHA… sooo… we were not the best of friends when I was little.<\/p>\n

I told mom many times — I didn’t like it but because in a family of 7, everyone else enjoyed it, I was totally ignored. So sometimes I would just pick out the extra chewy veggies and eat only the softer ones. So if you have little kids, please make sure the vegetables are cut in smaller pieces because it may not be all well chewable. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

But I’ve grown to really love this unique Korean dish that is now so popular all over the world.
