When I visited Umami Shop Canada Chef Mi-Ran taught me how to make a traditional Korean dish called BiBimBap.
Bibimbap in Korean literally means mixed rice, usually served in a stone bowl the rice is topped with mixed vegetables, a raw egg and sliced meat (usually beef) then mixed up while the dish is still hot.
Bibimbap is usually served on steamed white rice, for this dish we used a mix of sort grain and wild rice.
For the vegetables in the dish we used a mix of carrots, cabbage, mushrooms and cucumbers.
We also used beef.
We arranged all the vegetables and the beef in separate sections on top of the rice in the bowl. A chopstick full of each.
Once your done you separate the yolk from 1 egg, and place it into the middle of the dish.
Traditionally the egg is mixed in raw and the heat would cook it, but since we had a stone bowl
we heated the bowl over a gas burner, which cooked it slightly.
And that is how you make an Umami Bibimbap
