Learning to Make Kim bap

One of my students invited Mrs. Ring and me over to learn how to make Kim bap, a Korean food. We had such a good time together! Mrs. Ban had everything pre-cooked and prepared for us to make the Kim bap rolls. We learned how to place the rice and vegetables on the seaweed paper.

Then we used a special mat to roll it up. With each roll, we had to squeeze hard to get the rice and seaweed paper to hold together.

Here's our teacher and our first Kim bap rolls. After we made the rolls, we sliced them into circles 1 cm. thick.

Here's the fruit of our work and the Ban children. S.G. is in my class and his sister is in 1st grade. They'll be returning to Korea in February. We are so thankful for the time we've had to get to know them and for a wonderful cooking lesson!
