Talk about the popular side dish dried seaweed.
Gim (also known as laver) is a type of seaweed which is
edible.
* edible: 먹을 수 있는 (=eatable)
ex> I like anything as long as it is
edible.
ex> I think everything is
edible as long as you don't get sick from it.
It tastes good and is a very popular side dish in Korea.
Gim
is rich in dietary minerals, particularly iodine and iron.
* be rich in: ~가 풍부하다
ex> I like foods
rich in protein.
Gim is made by collecting laver from the sea and drying it out in sheets.
Once it is dried, people spread
sesame oil or
perilla oil on the sheet.
* sesame oil: 참기름
* perilla oil: 들기름
ex> Some people prefer
perilla oil over
sesame oil.
Then they add salt and light roast it.
By being prepared this way, Gim adds a roasted, salty flavor when eating with rice.
You can make gimbab with it, which
is very similar to California rolls.
ex> They
are very similar to each other.
Gim can also
be shredded and added as toppings to soups or other rice dishes.
* shred: 잘게 썰다
ex> I like my receipts to
be shredded before I throw them away.
