Kim Pop 김 밥

Kim 김 – Dried Seaweed Paper

Pop 밥 - Rice

Kim Pop is a quick and inexpensive snack.  It is a sushi-like roll filled with many different things.  Our favorite roll is “Kim Chi Kim Pop” (김치 김 밥).  It has the following ingredients wrapped inside seaweed:

  • rice
  • kim chi (makes it spicy)
  • carrot
  • egg
  • pickled radish
  • ham

Today we grabbed a roll to snack on.

Korean food is often difficult to bite a piece off of, like sushi.  Thus, you put HUGE amounts of food in your mouth at once.  Watching Koreans eat is ASTONISHING, impressive and at times painful-looking!

You will see below that I have been honing my eating skills and I have started to eat like a proper Korean (most of the time).
