Cooking Korean at home

간장, 고추장, 된장 — three jars feed you forever.

Die Erklärung ist Englisch. Koreanische Zeilen und Sinn folgen deiner Sprache.

Stock the holy trinity: 간장 (soy sauce), 고추장 (chili paste), 된장 (soybean paste). Add sesame oil, garlic, and you can fake 80% of home cooking.

Rice cooker (밥솥) is the kitchen's heart. 밥 means both rice and meal — 밥 먹었어요? doubles as 'how's life?'

Starter dish: 김치볶음밥. Old kimchi + rice + gochujang + egg. If you can stir, you can cook Korea.
