How does it differ from other East Asian cuisines?

 

 

not sure about the technical answer for this part. Their spices are

different from others I am familiar with, red chile powder/paste being used

quite

often. but I don't know what chile they use.

Kimchee is what I am most familiar with. I have recipes I make often for 3

different types, one is with bok choy, one is made with Diakon radish, one with

cucumber. I am fortunate to have on 'long term loan' the Korean cooking

staple 'Korean Cooking For You' by Moon Ja Yoon (now out of print, I have it on

loan from my mom's Korean neighbor who doesn't cook anything, Korean or

other).

 

Skimming through the book, I see: (Korean name first, her English name after

in parenthesis)

~Goo Joel Pan (stir fry vegetables with pancake)

~Sue Jae Bee (dumpling soup) (has myul chi [dried fish to make stock] in it

but you could substitute vegetable stock for it)

~Bee Bim Bob (rice with vegetables & meat, but you obviously could sub. or

leave out) In it are bean sprouts, zucchini, moo (white radish), spinach, egg

garnish. All seasoned differently.

~Kim Bob (rice sandwich) which is basically the California roll I posted a

while ago

~Bok Eum Bob (fried rice) ypu could easily make vegetarian.

Lots of fresh vegetables included in this.

~4 kinds of kimchee

~Kim Ku Yee (seasoned seaweed with sesame oil) doesn't look very filling)

~To-Fu Bok Eum (Stir fry tofu with hot sauce)

~To-Fu Jo Rim (seasoned tofu)

~To-Fu Doen Jang Chi Gai (tofu with soybean paste)

~Kong Na Mul (soybean sprouts) I've been meaning to make this, its yummy

~Sook Ju Na Mul (mung bean sprouts)

~Moo Na Mul (radishes)

~Si Gum Chi Na Mul (spinach)

~Ho Bak Na Mul (zucchini, this stuff is awesome!)

~Sinsunlo (fancy fire pot with a combination of foods) easily adapted to

vegetarian

~Chop Chae (mixed vegetables with noodles)

~Ja Jang Myun (noodles with soybean paste sauce)

~Ko Choo Jeon (stuffed green pepper)

Bean Dae Duk (mung bean pancake) calls for pork but looking at the recipe I

think you could easily sub tofu

And there are 4 desserts & 2 punches, but I have to go get ready for

school/work. If any interest anyone let me know, I'll type them in as I have

time.

You mentioned that you make Korean food. What do they make that is vegetarian?

I am just familiar with kimchi. My mechanic is Korean but he seems to eat a lot

of meat in his Korean dishes. How does it differ from other East Asian

cuisines?

 

Thanks GB
