Kimbap is Korea’s answer to the perfect rice roll—similar in shape to sushi, yet uniquely its own with savory cooked fillings that create distinctive flavors and textures. Join Tess for this fun-filled cook-along adventure and explore the art of making Bulgogi Kimbap rolls from start to finish, rivaling any you will find in a restaurant. From seasoning the rice, to marinating and cooking Bulgogi, preparing colorful vegetables (including a quick pickle), and crafting a delicate omelet, you'll bring everything together into a beautiful hand-rolled Kimbap.

Along the way, you will discover the key differences between sushi and Kimbap, practice rolling and shaping techniques and enjoy the bold, balanced flavors of your creation. Whether you are a busy home cook or a curious foodie, you will leave with new skills, fresh inspiration, and the confidence to turn simple ingredients into a variety of healthy, delicious, gourmet kimbap.

Participants will receive a list of ingredients in advance of the class to allow time for shopping. Have your questions answered by the instructor and interact with other participants as you cook-along. While cooking along is loads of fun, it is optional. Participants will also receive a copy of the instructor’s personal recipes in PDF format following the class. This class will take place on Zoom.
