BEFORE YOU COOK
Gather your ingredients
Seasoning ratio from the reference
- Vinegar: 2 spoonfuls
- Sugar: 1 spoonful
- Salt: ½ spoonful
The reference does not specify the rice quantity or spoon volume. Use the same spoon for the ratio, then add only a little of the mixture to the rice and taste. Do not treat the whole mixture as a dose for one bowl.
Ingredients for the added rolling demonstration
- Cooked short-grain rice and seaweed sheets
- Cooked carrot and well-drained spinach
- Cooked egg strips and pickled radish
The original clip focuses on rice seasoning. The filling and rolling steps are an additional demonstration, not a complete measured recipe from that clip.
Contains egg; the illustrated spinach is garnished with sesame. Check the labels of prepared fillings.
FOLLOW THE COOKING ORDER
From seasoned rice to a finished roll
1. Measure the vinegar
Use the same spoon throughout: measure 2 spoonfuls of vinegar. The source does not define spoon volume or the amount of rice.
2. Add sugar and salt
Add 1 spoonful of sugar and ½ spoonful of salt. This makes a seasoning mixture to use gradually, not a fixed dose for one bowl of rice.
3. Dissolve the seasoning
Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve.
4. Prepare warm rice
Put freshly cooked short-grain rice in a wide bowl.
5. Season a little at a time
Add a little seasoning, fold gently with a rice paddle and taste before adding more. Keep the rice from becoming wet, and let excess steam escape before rolling.
6. Spread rice and add fillings
For this added rolling demonstration, use cooked carrot, well-drained spinach, cooked egg strips and pickled radish. Spread a thin layer of rice on seaweed over a bamboo mat, leaving the far edge bare. Place the fillings in a neat line; avoid overfilling.
7. Roll firmly
Lift the mat and roll firmly, keeping the mat outside the gimbap. Rest with the seam facing down.
8. Slice and serve
Cut with a sharp clean knife. This is one vinegar-seasoned variation; sesame oil and salt are also commonly used to season gimbap rice.
