Exploring Traditional and Modern Food

talking about exploring traditional and modern food,   Korea has a very diverse and unique culinary culture, with traditional food that has been part of the daily lives of Korean people for centuries. Korean food not only focuses on taste and texture, but also plays an important role in Korean culture and traditions. In this article, we will explore traditional Korean food, as well as how Korean pop culture influences modern Korean food.

Traditional Korean Food

Traditional Korean food is famous for the fermentation technique used to extend the shelf life of food. One example of traditional Korean food is porridge, which is made by boiling grains in a lot of water for a long time. Porridge was originally used as food for children and the elderly who experienced digestive disorders. Noodle dishes are also very popular in Korea, with different variations in each region. Cold noodle soup, or naengmyeon, is made from buckwheat noodles eaten with cold meat broth. There is also a tradition of serving noodles in warm soup, called janchi guksu, at weddings. Hanjeongsik, or a traditional Korean set meal, consists of various dishes served together. Among them, there are traditional liquors such as makgeolli, which is made by steaming rice, barley, wheat, etc., and fermenting with yeast. Makgeolli has a relatively low alcohol content, namely 6-7 degrees, and is very popular among foreign tourists visiting Korea.

Contemporary Innovation

Fusion cuisine is increasingly popular in Korea, with restaurants offering traditional Korean food with a modern twist. For example, Pizza Hut restaurants in Korea offer traditional Korean cakes such as tteok. Apart from that, immigrants from Southeast Asia, Mongolia and South Asia have also contributed to the diversity of culinary types in Korea.

Korean Restaurants Abroad

Korean restaurants can be found in areas with significant Korean populations. In Indonesia, for example, Korean restaurants can be established in Korean citizen organizations in Kebayoran Baru, South Jakarta, or in Lippo Village, Tangerang.

Dining Table Arrangement

Koreans usually eat by sitting on cushions (without chairs) at a low table with their legs crossed. They eat food using spoons and forks, and use spices and sauces that suit the food being served.

Korean Modern Food

Modern Korean food is also very diverse and interesting. One example of modern Korean food is bibimbap, which means “mixed food”. Bibimbap consists of white rice served with various vegetables and meat, and served with fried eggs. Bibimbap is very popular among foreign tourists and Koreans.

Festivals and Rituals

In Korea, there are many festivals and rituals related to food. For example, Korean wedding festivals are often served with noodle dishes served in warm soup, as well as various traditional liquors. These festivals help maintain Korean culinary culture and maintain Korean culinary traditions. Another example is a festival on New Year’s celebration day where lots of typical Korean food is sold at the festival.

Influence of Korean Pop Culture

Korean pop culture has also had a big influence on modern Korean food. For example, K-pop fans often imitate the appearance of Korean artists by copying haircuts, imitating Korean artists’ dancing and singing, and imitating the way Korean artists dress. The influence of Korean pop culture can also be seen in the sales of Korean-inspired beauty products, clothing and accessories.

Korea’s culinary culture is very diverse and unique, with traditional foods that have been part of Korean people’s daily lives for centuries. Modern Korean food is also very diverse and interesting, with a very significant influence from Korean pop culture. In this way, Korean culinary culture becomes a bridge of friendship between Korea and other countries, and helps maintain Korean culinary traditions. Korean culinary delights have become very famous internationally because of their unique taste and indirect promotion of Korean dramas and series.
