.25 cup soy sauce
.25 cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon garlic paste
.50 teaspoon tarragon ((dried))
.50 teaspoon ginger ((dried))
3 tablespoons sesame oil ((divided - 1 tablespoon per veggie))
1 large red bell pepper ((chopped small))
1 large onion ((chopped small))

1 teaspoon salt ((divided, 1/4 teaspoon per vegetable))
2 tablespoon sesame oil ((divided - 1 tablespoon per bowl))
2 eggs ((1 per bowl))
Gochujang sauce

Steps:

  • Place all the marinade ingredients (soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, garlic paste, tarragon, and ginger powder) in a bowl and whisk them together.
  • Add chicken and mix until the marinade covers the chicken. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Meanwhile, make the rice according to the package.
  • Place stone bowls in oven and set the oven for 425 F. Once it comes to temperature, set timer for 10 minutes. Once it beeps, turn off oven and set timer for 10 minutes. If all the vegetables aren't done cooking, you may leave the bowls in the oven.
  • Heat a large sauté pan or wok on medium, add 1 tablespoon marinade and once that heats up, add the chicken and sauté for 10 minutes, stirring every minute. Set aside.
  • Heat another sauté pan or wok on medium add 1 tablespoon oil and once that heats up, add onion and pepper and sauté for 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • In the pan you sautéed the chicken in add 1 tablespoon of oil and once that heats up, add bok choy and sauté for 4 minutes. Set aside.
  • In the pan the onion and pepper was in, add 1 tablespoon of oil and once that heats up, add mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Take stone bowls out of the oven, set them on the burners and turn the heat under them on medium.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to each stone bowl and take a silicone brush and distribute oil up the sides of the bowls.
  • Add spoonfuls of rice to the bowls and spread it up the sides of the bowls, flattening it with the bowl of the spoon
  • Add the vegetables individually to the bowl keeping them in the quadrants. This is for presentation since you're just going to mix it together with a spoon when you serve it.
  • Add a few spoonfuls of chicken on the vegetables in the middle.
  • Set the timer for 15 minutes for crunchy rice or 10 minutes for softer rice.
  • Either fry the eggs sunny-side up or add them raw to the bowls after you place the BBB on the table.
  • Use a large serving spoon to mix the BBB until the egg is cooked (if you're using raw eggs).
  • Serve
  • Add Gochujang sauce for extra spice, or soy sauce, or eat plain
  • Enjoy

1 each zucchini ((julienned))
5-6 each shitake mushrooms ((sliced))
3 cups daikon radish ((or Korean radish, julienned))
1 bunch asparagus ((young and tender ones are better))
1/3 lb beef ((chuck eye roll steak or boneless short rib))
1 lb bean sprouts
3 Tbsp vegetable oil ((1 Tbsp for each vegetable))
1/4 tsp sea salt ((about 1/8th for each))
1/8 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 Tbsp soy sauce (jin ganjang)
1 Tbsp soy sauce (jin ganjang)
1 Tbsp rice wine (sake) ((mirin is ok))
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp garlic ((chopped))
1 dash black pepper
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp sesame seeds
1 dash black pepper

2.5 Tbsp sugar
0.5 Tbsp red chili powder (gochukaru)
2.5 Tbsp rice vinegar
1 Tbsp gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
2 tsp rice vinegar
1.5 tsp sugar

Steps:

  • Cook short grain rice. Rice cooker is the easiest way to make rice if you have one.
  • Soak dried Shitake mushrooms in warm water until fully soft throughout. About 15 min or more. You can also just leave it overnight in the fridge if you want to make it ahead.
  • While mushrooms are soaking, peel and julienne Carrot, Zucchini and Daikon radish. Use a mandoline slicer for the most uniform and pretty cuts but for probably not for carrots as they may be too hard.
  • Break off hard ends of Asparagus and cut into 3rds.
  • When Shitake mushrooms are fully rehydrated, remove stem and slice thin.
  • If using Beef Chuck/Stew/Steak meat, cut into thin strips. You can also use ground beef.
  • Make Musaengche (Korean Radish Salad) with julienned radish. Click on recipe link (left) for more details or see video.
  • Marinate beef by adding soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, rice wine, chopped garlic and black pepper. Mix with your hands.
  • Boil a pot of water and cook Sukju Namul (Bean Sprouts). Click on recipe link (left) on how to make it or see video.
  • Let's start sautéing everything else! Try to follow the order I have below so that you don't have to wipe or clean the pan in between each ingredient.
  • Zucchini: Heat about 1 Tbs vegetable oil in frying pan on medium heat. Saute julienned Zucchini. Sprinkle some sea salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes until zucchinis are soft. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Carrots: In the empty frying pan, add a little more veg oil and sauté Carrots the same way as zucchini with a bit of sea salt. Until carrots are soft and cooked. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Asparagus: Next, heat a little more veg oil and sauté asparagus in the same frying pan. Sprinkle sea salt and black pepper. Sauté Asparagus until they are just cooked - tender yet still a bit crunchy. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Shitake Mushrooms: In the same pan, add sliced Shitake mushrooms. Sauté for 1-2 minutes and then add soy sauce. Quickly stir to evenly distribute soy sauce onto the mushrooms. Cook for 1-2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Beef: Lastly, add marinated Beef in the frying pan and sauté on medium heat until well done. If there's a lot of liquid, let it cook for a little more until the marinade is mostly reduced. Set aside.
  • Egg: Depending on how you want it, either separate just the egg yolk and set aside or fry egg over easy.

1 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds

  • Prepare and cook ingredients as below.- In a bowl, combine the meat with the marinade. Cover the bowl and leave it in the fridge while you are working on other the ingredients. When ready, Add some cooking oil into a wok and cook the meat on medium high to high heat. It takes about 3 to 5 mins to thoroughly cook it.- Prepare the Korean cucumber side dish, fernbrake side dish and bellflower root side dish per the linked recipes. These can be prepared on a different day to save your bibimbap making time.- Separately sauté carrots, zucchini and mushrooms in a frying pan. Season them lightly with fine sea salt.- Mix the bibimbap sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.- Pan fry the eggs per your preference. (Sunny side up is a popular choice.)
  • Preheat an oven for 10 minutes at 220 C / 428 F. Once heated, place your stone bowl into the oven. Leave it there for 10 minutes. 10 minutes later, take it out. Drop in some sesame oil (about 1 Tbsp per medium size bowl) and brush it around. Quickly assemble your bibimbap ingredients inside the hot stone bowl. First you will have to lay down the rice. Make sure you flatten it well. Then add the meat, assorted vegetables, and the egg on top of the rice. Transfer the hot stone bowl onto the gas stove and cook it for 5 minutes over low heat. You will hear the rice crackling noise. Remove from the heat.
  • Pour the bibimbap sauce into the hot stone bowl and mix all the ingredients well. Serve.

DOL SOT BI BIM BAP



Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap image

Dol Sot Bi Bim Bap is Korean for Hot Stone Bowl with Mixed Rice - oh, and vegetables, and meat, and egg. My 'go to' favorite Korean dish, next to haemul pajeon and Bulgogi. I'm a big carnivore so my version has about 25% more meat than the traditional version. Mmmmmm, cow!

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian     Korean

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 20

½ cup soy sauce
½ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup minced garlic
⅓ cup chopped green onion
4 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
20 ounces rib-eye steak, sliced thin
salt and pepper to taste
3 cups uncooked glutinous (sticky) white rice, rinsed
6 ½ cups water
4 dried shiitake mushrooms
1 pound fresh spinach, washed and chopped
12 ounces cucumber, julienned
12 ounces carrots, julienned
sesame oil
8 ounces fresh bean sprouts
6 eggs
6 sheets nori, crumbled
6 tablespoons sesame oil
¼ cup chili bean paste (Kochujang)

Steps:

  • Make the marinade for the beef. Combine the soy sauce, sugars, garlic, green onions, sesame seeds in a large bowl; add the sliced beef strips to the marinade, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cover; simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C), and place 6 Korean stone bowls in oven. Combine shiitake mushrooms and 1/2 cup hot water in a small bowl, and soak for about 10 minutes, until pliable. Trim off and discard the stems. Thinly slice the caps. Set aside.
  • Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add spinach to the water just long enough to wilt the leaves, and then drain and pat dry. Set aside. Combine cucumber and carrots in a bowl, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Preheat wok over medium-high heat. Cook carrots and cucumbers in a small amount of sesame oil to soften, stirring frequently. Remove from pan, and set aside. Add a small amount of sesame oil to the pan, and cook spinach in sesame oil for a minute or two. Remove spinach from pan,and set aside. Add the meat strips and marinade to the wok; cook, stirring frequently, until the liquid reduces in volume, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the stone bowls from the oven to suitable heat resistant surface. Brush each bowl with sesame oil to coat. Divide the rice into the bowls, and gently pack to the bottom (the rice should sizzle as you arrange). Arrange the cucumbers and carrots, bean sprouts, greens, shiitake mushrooms, and beef mixture over each potion of rice. Immediately before serving , add one raw egg yolk to each bowl, drizzle with about a tablespoon of sesame oil, and top with the nori. Serve Kochujang sauce as a condiment.

DOLSOT BIBIMBAP



Dolsot Bibimbap image

Dear cook, I know there's a lot going on here, but with the exception of the final assembly, everything can be done and refrigerated a couple of days ahead.

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons doenjang or brown miso paste
4 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish as desired
10 cloves garlic, grated
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger (from a 2 1/2-inch piece)
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
8 ounces boneless beef short ribs, frozen for 15 minutes and very thinly sliced across the grain
2 3/4 cups water, divided, plus more for rinsing the rice
1/2 ounce (about 1/2 cup) dried shiitake mushrooms
6 tablespoons gochujang
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 1/8 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 English cucumber, peeled and very thinly sliced
400 grams (about 2 cups) short-grain white rice or sushi rice
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil, plus more for drizzling
1 cup bean sprouts
6 ounces whole leaf spinach, washed
1 teaspoon neutral oil, such as canola
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • The meat: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, doenjang, two of the scallions, 1 tablespoon of the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the ginger, and the brown sugar. Transfer 1/2 cup of this mixture to a gallon-size zip-top bag and add the short ribs. Seal, removing as much air as possible, then massage the bag to thoroughly coat the meat. Transfer to the fridge for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight.
  • The mushrooms: Place the remaining soy sauce mixture in a small saucepan along with 1/2 cup of the water and the dried mushrooms. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and hydrated, 20 to 25 minutes. Strain, pressing on the mushrooms to remove their liquid. Reserve both the mushrooms and their cooking liquid. Roughly chop or thinly slice the mushrooms, if desired, and set aside near the stovetop. Rinse out the saucepan.
  • The sauce: Combine the gochujang and 2 teaspoons of the rice vinegar with 2 tablespoons of the mushroom cooking liquid in a small bowl. Stir well and season with additional rice vinegar to taste. Set aside for serving.
  • The flavor base: In a small bowl, combine the remaining garlic, remaining ginger, and the 2 remaining scallions. Scoop 1 scant tablespoon of this mixture into the now-clean saucepan. Set the remainder aside as you'll need it for the final assembly.
  • The pickles: To the saucepan, add 1/4 cup of the water, the remaining 2 tablespoons vinegar, the granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Meanwhile, place the cucumber slices in a pint-size glass canning jar. When the pickling liquid boils, immediately pour over the cucumbers. Cool to room temperature, cover tightly, and refrigerate.
  • The rice: Place a fine-mesh sieve in a medium bowl. Place the rice in the sieve, then fill the bowl with cold water. Swirl the rice around in the water using your fingers, then remove the sieve from the bowl to drain the rice. Dump the water and repeat until the water is mostly clear, 3 to 5 times. Drain the rice well and transfer to a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the remaining 2 cups of water and season with 1 teaspoon of the salt. Place over high heat and bring to a boil. Give the rice a single stir, reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and rest 10 minutes, still covered. Finally, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork to release excess steam and to help the outer starch to solidify. Transfer to a bowl or, if making ahead, cool completely and transfer to a zip-top bag for refrigeration.
  • The vegetables: Place a well-seasoned 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes. When the skillet just starts to smoke, add 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, followed by the bean sprouts, 1/2 teaspoon of the flavor base, and 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sprouts start to soften, about 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl and wipe out the skillet. Add another teaspoon of the sesame oil, followed by the spinach, 1 teaspoon flavor base, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a second small bowl, wipe out the skillet, and add another teaspoon of the sesame oil, followed by the rehydrated mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a third small bowl, then wipe out the skillet yet again.
  • Cook the meat: Place the skillet over medium-high heat, and when it just begins to smoke, add 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil. Add the beef as well as the marinade and cook, stirring often, until the meat is cooked through and the sauce reduces to a sticky glaze, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer meat to yet another bowl, remove the skillet from the heat, and wipe it out.
  • Assemble the bibimbap: Off the heat, coat the skillet (and its sides) with the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame oil. Add the rice and press into an even layer. Position the meat over a quarter of the rice, then mound the vegetables, each in their own separate piles, leaving open space between them for the eggs and the center for sauce. Cover the skillet, place over medium heat, and cook until the bottom of the rice is browned and crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • The eggs: While the rice is crisping, drizzle the neutral oil across a 12-inch nonstick skillet. Evenly space the eggs in the skillet. (I find transferring the eggs in a small bowl helps here.) Leave at room temperature for 10 minutes. Season the egg whites with a few pinches of salt, and place over medium heat. (If you're using an electric cooktop, begin heating the burner before adding the skillet.) Cook, uncovered, for 4 minutes. If the whites start to balloon up, just poke with a wooden chopstick to deflate. While the eggs cook, lightly lube a platter with oil or nonstick cooking spray. When the 4 minutes are up, slide the eggs onto the platter and rest for 1 minute. Cut into 4 individual egg wedges.
  • Uncover the skillet with the bibimbap. Place a dollop of sauce in the middle of the skillet and place the eggs between the vegetables. Sprinkle with the additional scallions and drizzle with an additional tablespoon of sesame oil, if desired. After the diners all view the lovely order of the dish, I like to stir everything together in front of them just to remind them how mixed up and crazy the world is. Serve with the cucumber pickles and additional sauce on the side.

BIBIMBAP



Bibimbap image

Bibimbap (BEE-beem-bop): One of the most popular dishes in Korean cuisine, bibimbap is a nutritious rice dish of steamed rice and pre-cooked vegetables (usually spinach, bean sprouts, carrots, mushrooms, egg and lettuce. It can also contain ground beef but can be ordered without meat. Dolsot bibimbap is the same dish served in a hot stone pot (the pot is pre-heated in oven) to make the rice on the bottom crunchy and to keep the dish hot for a longer time. Bulgogi (BULL-go-ghee): Literally meaning "fire meat", bulgogi is thinly sliced, usually rib-eye or sirloin, marinated grilled meat. Gochuchang (GOH-choo-jang) paste: spicy red pepper paste sold either in glass jars or plastic containers that can be purchased at any Korean or Asian food market.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

Steamed white rice
Bulgogi, recipe follows
1 carrot, julienned
Cooked bean sprouts, sauteed in a little sesame oil or peanut oil and seasoned with salt
Cooked spinach, sauteed in a little sesame or peanut oil and seasoned with salt
4 shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced and sauteed in peanut oil and seasoned with salt
1 egg, cooked over easy
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
Soy sauce, to taste
Gochuchang Paste, recipe follows
1 pound rib-eye
Marinade:
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 Korean pear or Asian pear, grated with juices
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1/2 small white onion, grated or sliced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon ground red pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 (20-ounce) bottle lemon-lime soda, optional (recommended: Sprite or 7-Up)

Steps:

  • *Cook's Note: This can be done in a regular bowl or a hot stone bowl. If it's in a hot stone bowl, the rice becomes crunchy because it's still cooking.
  • Put cooked rice in large slightly shallow bowl. Place bulgogi (with juices from cooked meat) and veggies on top of rice but place separately so you can see each ingredient beautifully placed on rice. Put egg on top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with sesame oil and soy sauce.
  • When ready to eat, mix all ingredients together with some gochuchang paste, to taste. The bibimpap should be moist and not dry. Add more sesame oil and gochuchang paste, to taste.
  • Place rib-eye in freezer for about 30 minutes so that it is easier to thinly slice. When partially frozen, remove from freezer and thinly slice. Set aside.
  • Whisk together all the marinade ingredients in a large baking dish. Add the thinly sliced beef and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight; it is best if marinated overnight.
  • Heat grill to high. Remove beef from marinade and grill for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside until ready to compile Bibimbap.
  • Gochuchang Paste (seasoned red pepper paste):
  • 4 tablespoons gochuchang (available at Korean grocers)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well.

Provided by gailanng

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cucumber, peeled, quartered lengthwise, seeded, and sliced thin on bias
4 ounces bean sprouts
1/4 cup gochujang
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
2 1/2 cups short-grain white rice
2 1/2 cups water
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water
3 scallions, minced
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 carrots, peeled and shredded (2 cups)
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps sliced thin
10 ounces bag curly-leaf spinach, stemmed and chopped coarse
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • For the pickles: Whisk vinegar, sugar and salt together in medium bowl. Add cucumber and bean sprouts and toss to combine. Gently press on vegetables to submerge. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
  • For the chile sauce: Whisk gochujang, water, oil, and sugar together in small bowl. Cover and set aside.
  • For the rice: Bring rice, water, and salt to boil in medium saucepan over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 7 minutes. Remove rice from heat and let sit, covered, until tender, about 15 minutes.
  • For the vegetables: While the rice cooks, stir together water, scallions, soy sauce, garlic and sugar. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in Dutch oven over high heat until shimmering. Add carrots and stir until coated. Add 1/3 cup scallion mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until carrots are slightly softened and moisture has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer carrots to small bowl.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon oil in now-empty pot until shimmering. Add mushrooms and stir until coated with oil. Add 1/3 cup scallion mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until mushrooms are tender and moisture has evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to second small bowl.
  • Heat remaining 1 teaspoon oil in now-empty pot until shimmering. Add spinach and remaining 1/3 cup scallion mixture and stir to coat spinach. Cook, stirring frequently, until spinach is completely wilted but still bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer spinach to third small bowl. Discard any remaining liquid and wipe out pot with paper towel.
  • For the bibimbap: Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and sesame oil in now-empty pot over high heat until shimmering. Carefully add cooked rice and gently press into even layer. Cook, without stirring, until rice begins to form crust on bottom of pot, about 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer carrots, spinach, and mushrooms to pot and arrange in piles that cover surface of rice. Reduce heat to low.
  • While crust forms, heat remaining 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in 10" nonstick skillet over low heat for 5 minutes. Crack eggs into small bowl. Pour eggs into skillet; cover and cook (about 2 minutes for runny yolks, 2 1/2 minutes for soft but set yolks, and 3 minutes for firmly set yolks). Slide eggs onto vegetables in pot.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoons chile sauce over eggs. Without disturbing crust, use wooden spoon to stir rice, vegetables, and eggs until combined. Just before serving, scrape large pieces of crust from bottom of pot and stir into rice. Serve in individual bowls, passing pickles and extra chile sauce separately.
  • Notes:.
  • For a quick dinner, prepare the pickles, chile sauce, and vegetables a day ahead (warm the vegetables to room temperature in the microwave before adding them to the rice). You can also substitute storebought kimchi for the pickles to save time. The Korean chile paste gochujang is sold in Asian markets and some supermarkets. If you can't find it, an equal amount of Sriracha can be substituted. But because Sriracha is more watery than gochujang, omit the water from the chile sauce and stir just 1 tablespoon of sauce into the rice in step 9. For a true bibimbap experience, bring the pot to the table before stirring the vegetables into the rice in step 9.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful meats, and aromatic rice are essential for a delicious bibimbap.
  • Cook the rice perfectly: The rice should be fluffy and slightly chewy. If it's too mushy or too dry, the bibimbap won't be as good.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be tender but still have some crunch. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and flavorless.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The more toppings you use, the more flavorful your bibimbap will be. Some popular toppings include beef, chicken, eggs, vegetables, and kimchi.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make bibimbap. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to find your favorite combination.

Conclusion:

Dolsot bibimbap is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for a quick and easy meal or a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make dolsot bibimbap at home. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give bibimbap a try. You won't be disappointed.
