the gimbap more flavorful. Add to the rice while still hot three tablespoons<br />
of rice vinegar, slightly sweet for a Japanese taste, or add sesame<br />
seed oil for a nuttier, meatier one.<br />
Quickly rub each sheet of seaweed between your hands to remove<br />
extra flakes. Then, lay the seaweed on the rolling mat so that it is flush<br />
with the bottom edge. Spoon out one large scoop of rice and pat it down<br />
so that there is an even, 1 cm-thick layer of rice on the bottom. Press one<br />
strip of each filling into a mound the width of the seaweed.<br />
Now, lift the bottom edge of the rolling mat and fold it over the rice so<br />
that it is completely covered. At the same time, keep your hands cupped<br />
to form a round mold. Roll forward while pressing the fingers into the<br />
base of the rolled rice. Maintain pressure as you roll so that it keeps its<br />
shape until the end of the sheet. The sticky rice will keep the roll <strong>from</strong><br />
falling apart. Repeat the process for each seaweed sheet.<br />
For dessert, Koreans usually have sliced fresh fruit and herb teas. After<br />
a full meal, these are great for the digestion.
