Korean food is bold, unique and well worth exploring. Despite the similarities in Asian cuisines, there are some marked differences. Korean food places an emphasis on meat, especially beef. Barbecues and intensely flavored sauces are favored. Vegetables are preserved with a pickling method known as kimchee. Most any fresh vegetable can be pickled this way, yet cabbage is typical.
Foundational ingredients are garlic, ginger, green onions, sesame seed, rice vinegar, brown sugar, soy and red chilies. Each contributes to the Rule of Five Flavors: sweet, hot, sour, salt and bitter. Koreans often adhere to an arrangement of five colors in their meals: red, yellow, green, white and black.
