Kim-chi fried rice

The only food that I can make it is Kim-chi fried rice. It’s easy to cook and delicious. First what I need is Kim-chi. Kim-chi has changed its taste since it was done being made. The best time to eat Kim chi is the middle time between flat taste and sour taste. If Kim chi’s smell is too sour, you should throw it away. And I need boiled rice, onion, Kim and butter. Kim is a kind of seaweed that looks like black paper, and that most American know by the word “Nori”, but that word is Japanese. Kim is Korean, because the person who made Kim was named Kim. Also, Kim is the most common family name in Korea. And last thing is meat. I prefer tuna, but you can put in ham, turkey or whatever you want.

Now, let’s start to cook. First, put butter in a big pan, and put in Kim chi and onion. When they are boiled, you should put in tuna. And then, if the tuna is boiled, you could put in the rice. The point is that you should put more Kim chi juice in while your cook. You can control the spicy taste by yourself. If you put a lot of Kim chi juice in, it would be spicy. And you should mix it well, so every grain of rice color would change to orange. The last part of the cooking is the Kim. You can mix the Kim in the rice. Then, it’s done. If you like fried egg, you can put it on top of the Kim chi fried rice. It would look like Kim chi omelet.

Eating cultures betwen Korea and U.S.A

There are many differences between Korea and the U.S.A. First, Korean society has some classes of age. Korean should respect people who are older than them. So, Koreans has many terms of respect. In the meal, people should wait until the oldest person starts eating. This is a kind of traditional culture, so many people don’t do it that much, now. But in the United States, people can start eating whenever they want. Next, tables are different. Now, there are many western cultural things in Korea, but traditionally, Koreans have lived sitting on the floor. We didn’t have any kind of furniture like bed or dinner table. A Korean traditional table’s legs are short. So everyone eats meals sitting around the table on the floor. Of course, in the inside of a house, people should take off their shoes. But in America, they are just sitting around a table, which has long leg with wearing their shoes. Last is a way. In America, they sitting around big table, and take off foods from its plates to their own plates. They have kinds of buffet in their home. But ways in Korea are totally different. Everyone sits around a smaller table than in America, and the host gives a bowl with steamed rice to each person. Also, many side dishes are on the table. Side dishes are usually from 3 to 15 dishes or more. And everyone picks whatever foods they want together. Whenever they want to eat, they just pick. So, sometimes spoons or chopsticks hit each other, but nobody cares. I think this culture is the only one thing in Asia. This way is a kind of strange way, but I like it. This way makes people become intimate.
