Kimbap – Seaweed Rice Roll #dinner #veggies

Kimbap is Korean Seaweed Rice Roll that is made with prepared rice and different veggies and meat that is come in dried ocean growth (kim). This is the most bona fide and exemplary Kimbap formula that was my youth top choice.

Kimbap (김밥) or Gimbap, Yubu chobap(유부초밥), myeolchi bokkeum ( 멸치볶음) and jangjorim (장조림) were all.. very flawless.. for picnics. However, since I consider it, I enjoyed my sibling's picnics far and away superior since then I could simply go with mother, have Kimbap for lunch, unwind and do nothing else. No worrying about making diversions which was an absolute necessity at my very own school outing. Drop the Handkerchief (손수건 돌리기 sohnsugeon dolighee) was one game we ALWAYS played and I HATED IT!!! I was consistently the slowest sprinter in the class… I was never any great at these amusements and as a rule, when I lost, they caused me to sing before the class which was basically embarrassing. Amazing.. this brings back recollections..

So a few people think Kimbap or Gimbap is Korean rendition of a sushi roll since it utilizes a similar bamboo tangle and seems to be like sushi. In any case, there are records in the history books from Chosun tradition (which is before Japan's attack of Korea) that notice wrapping rice with Korean gim/kim.
