In this cooking class, participants will learn to prepare kimbap from scratch, exploring various fillings such as:

Imitation crab Fish cake
Egg omelet
Bulgogi (grilled marinated beef)

The session will cover essential skills, including rice seasoning, ingredient preparation, rolling techniques, and achieving the perfect slice.

Beyond the culinary techniques, the class will search into the cultural significance of kimbap in Korean traditions, such as its role in picnics, celebrations, and everyday meals.

We'll cover essential techniques, from seasoning the rice to rolling and slicing the perfect kimbap.

By the end of the session, attendees will have the confidence to recreate kimbap at home, equipped with knowledgeabout ingredient substitutions, variations, and presentation tips.
