As Korean restaurants spring up across the country, more and more people are trying bibimbap. If you're wondering What is bibimbap, exactly? it's a Korean rice bowl filled with a variety of sautéed vegetables, a raw or fried egg, and your choice of protein.
Now that you're familiar with this traditional meal, read on for a brief tutorial that will teach you how to eat bibimbap correctly.
Obvious, but some Korean restaurants don't serve bibimbap. To find a place that does, click one of the links below and check out the menus for the dish (which may also be spelled bi bim bop).
What To Eat In Seoul
Many restaurants offer regular bibimbap and something called dolsot bibimbap, which is a popular version of the dish, served in a piping-hot stone bowl that slowly cooks the ingredients and crisps the rice as you eat. It looks like this:
Ultimately, you can get either kind, but we prefer the dolsot bibimbap, because it keeps your meal hotter over a longer period of time.
Keen on using chopsticks, go ahead. Chopsticks are not customary, but they also aren't a huge faux pas, so you won't receive any dirty looks at the restaurant if you use them. When considering how to eat bibimbap, however, most Koreans prefer eating with a spoon. Not only is a spoon easier to control, but it helps you scoop up giant mouthfuls.

Gochujang is a popular Korean condiment made with red chilies, fermented soybeans, glutinous rice, and salt. Gochujang is great for adding a burst of heat to any dish, but it also infuses food with a subtle sweetness and a dash of umami. It looks like this:
Most Korean restaurants will have gochujang available, but if not, Sriracha will work in a pinch. If you're not familiar with Sriracha, it's another chili-based red sauce with a dash of garlic. It's a little bit spicier than Gochujang, so be careful with it.
Not every Korean restaurant will provide you with a side of sesame oil, as it isn't a crucial component of bibimbap. So if this happens, don't get upset and storm out of the dining room. But if you do get the chance to add sesame oil, you should do so. Adding a

Drizzle of this oil —be careful, this stuff is potent—will impart a warm, nutty flavor and an instant wallop of that all-important umami.
Is Korean for mixed rice, not compartmentalized ingredients placed atop rice. So grab your trusty spoon (another reason spoons are preferable to chopsticks in this instance), stir away, and put some elbow grease into it.
Seriously, one or two half-hearted loops around the bowl won't suffice here. You'll know you've reached the perfect degree of mixedness when your once-kaleidoscopic, artfully assembled bowl of bibimbap starts to resemble a monochromatic porridge. It might seem like a shame at first, given the original presentation's beauty, but one bite will convince you it wasn't.

I am a little obsessed with Bibimbap. I’d go as far as to say that it’s my favourite Korean food – but it always concerns me when I make grand statements like that because I’m worried I’ve said that about another Korean recipe I’ve previously shared.
Bibimbap! (korean Rice Bowl)
Bibimbap is one of the most well known Korean dishes. A rice bowl topped with all sorts of seasoned sautéed vegetables, marinated meat (usually beef), a fried egg sunny side up, finished with a sprinkle of sesame and generous dollop of a sweet-spicy-savouryBibimbap sauce. <- Heads up,
This sauce is so awesome, you can basically use any vegetables and any meat and your Bibimbap is going to be delish!
There’s no denying it – this recipe has more components to it than my quick ‘n easy one pot meals because all the toppings are seasoned and cooked separately.
How To Make A Delicious & Colorful Bibimbap
But the simple seasonings are largely repetitive and it is a very straightforward, leisurely recipe you can start and stop as you please because it’s MEANT to be served at room temp!
It’s probably not “normal” to start with the Bibimbap Sauce, but I am because I think it makes this dish. You can use any vegetables and any protein (even tofu) and your bibimbap will still be SO GOOD once it’s all mixed up with the rice and this sauce!
The essential ingredient in Bibimbap Sauce is Gochujang, an intense flavoured spicy miso paste that’s key to Korean cooking. Find it at Asian grocery stores (it’s cheap, ~$2.50, and lasts for ages), at someWoolworthsstores (Australia), and here it is on Amazon Australia, US, Canadaand UK.
Bibimbap With Homemade Bibimbap Sauce
Nowadays, you’ll find Bibimbap with all sorts of meat toppings but the traditional version is made with thinly sliced beef. The beef seasoning is usually a slightly toned down version of Bulgogi (Korean Marinated Beef).We don’t need big flavour on the beef because the Bibimbap Sauce adds tons of flavour. Some recipes even use justbasic soy-garlic-sesame oil combination.
But I like each component on my Bibimbap to be tasty enough to eat on its own so I use a scaled back Bulgogi marinade.
The unique ingredient in Bulgogi is grated apple – this is a signature technique used in Korean marinades to add flavour, sweetness and tenderise! Nashi pear is also commonly used.
Bibimbap (mixed Rice With Vegetables) Recipe By Maangchi
Totally! Chicken, turkey or pork finally sliced or cut into thin strips, small prawns/shrimp or even fish fillets (cook whole then flake).
This is the part that some people find tedious but I don’t find to be a big deal at all – cooking each of the vegetables individually.
My favourite part! (Aside from eating it of course… and breaking the yolk… and mixing it all up… OK fine. It’s my 4th favourite part!)
Bibimbap (korean Mixed Rice With Meat And Assorted Vegetables)
There are no rules about the order in which the vegetables and meat get placed on the rice, but try to use alternating colours just to make it look as good as it tastes. 😇
Part of the whole Bibimbap experience is how the bowl comes to you looking as pretty as a picture, then you get to dollop on as much Bibimbap Sauce as you want (I use about 2 tbsp), then after all that hard work preparing the bowls, you mix it all up and turn it into a delicious mess.
Recipe VIDEO above. One of Korea's most famous food exports! The key here is the Bibimbap Sauce - feel free to switch the veg and meat, whatever you use is going to be amazing once mixed up with that Sauce. There's a lot of components here but there's repeat ingredients and it's an easy recipe - and it's MEANT to be served at room temp so don't rush!
Sheet Pan Bibimbap Recipe (with Video)
1. Rice - traditionally served with short grain white rice, can also use sushi rice (which is a short grain rice). Short grain is stickier so it's easier to pick up with chopsticks. Any white or other rice of choice is also fine.
2.Beef - you can buy finely sliced beef in the freezer section of Asian stores, and I strongly urge you to do that if you can, I usually do! To do it yourself (which I did for the video & photos), use any tender cut of beef suitable for quick cooking (I used tenderloin). To slice super finely (the Asian way!), freeze for 30 to 60 minutes until firm but not rock hard, then finely slice as thin as possible.
3. Apple - using grated apple and nashi pears is a classic Korean marinade technique. Adds a touch of flavour, sweetness and tenderises the meat.

5.Shiitake Mushrooms - dried mushrooms are found in larger supermarkets in Australia, but cheaper at Asian stores! Use 8 large or 12 small.
6. Gochujang - a spicy red miso based based, lots of umami! Key Korean cooking ingredient. Find it at Asian grocery stores (it’s cheap, ~$2.50, and lasts for ages), at someWoolworthsstores (Australia), and here it is on Amazon Australia, US, Canadaand UK.
7. Mirin - Sweet Japanese cooking wine, also used in Korean cooking. Sold at Asian grocery stores and large supermarkets (Coles, Woolies, Aldi in Aus)
