📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Gimbap was influenced by Japanese norimaki, but the rice is seasoned with sesame oil and salt rather than vinegar. Colorful fillings like spinach, pickled radish, omelet, and seasoned beef are rolled up inside, and it's the classic packed lunch for sports days, picnics, and school trips.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On picnic days, the gimbap mom rolls early in the morning is a special treat for Korean kids.
