Koreans, like Japanese, are used to sitting on the floor and eating cross-legged. Its traditional diet is relatively simple, the staple food is rice, and it likes to eat kimchi. The export volume of kimchi is said to be the highest in the world. I think it can win the championship because every meal has its own table, and many tricks can be put on exquisite dishes: cabbage, radish, pepper and what we call unknown ones, which are both appetizing and delicious. There are obviously more vegetarian dishes on their table than ours, because they are close to the sea and there are many vegetarian seafood. Another "multi" is sauce products. The influence of "Jianggang culture" in our place has probably reached the point where "shine on you is better than blue". They have a special sauce for mixing vegetables and rice. I tasted it and it was delicious. The above "three excesses" may constitute a reasonable factor that its diet is low in sugar and fat and meets the nutritional requirements. We have noticed that there are not many obese people in Korea. Generally, middle-aged and elderly people can keep fit and look healthy. Is this related to good eating habits?

The economy and science of Korean food can also be proved by a kind of "miniature paper cup" specially used for water dispensers. It is a small piece of paper with only the length of the middle finger and the width of two fingers. After special treatment, it becomes a very small cup when you put it on the tap to receive water. Compared with transparent plastic cups and ordinary paper cups, it has its own small and simple advantages, which are often seen in Korean streets and fast food restaurants.

Perhaps the most famous Korean food is barbecue. Teppanyaki is not only used for cooking, but also for fried noodles. The most interesting thing is a kind of "stone barbecue": a pile of pebbles are heated on an iron frame, the meat pieces are paved first, and when the temperature is fixed, the large pieces of meat are twisted into small pieces with long scissors, and then put into a rolling stone, which will creak and smell in a short time. According to reports, pebbles are imported, since they can store heat and even temperature, so that meat will not be burnt, and oil can be removed to taste.

Korean traditional diet

There are many kinds of diets in Korea, because Korea used to be an agricultural society. Therefore, rice has been the staple food since ancient times. Recently, the Korean diet consists of various vegetables, meat and fish. Fermented pickled foods such as kimchi (fermented spicy cabbage), seafood sauce (pickled seafood) and soybean sauce (fermented soybean) are famous for their nutritional value and special taste. The characteristic of Korean table setting is that all food is set at the same time. The number of traditional dishes is three for the poor and twelve for the royal family. The placement of the table varies according to the noodles or meat. Compared with China and Japan, Korean food provides soup, and rice spoons are used more frequently in Korea.
