Korean food is notoriously spicy today, gochugaru and gochujang are fundamental condiments of modern Korean cooking, but pre-chili recipes for things like kimchi are not notably spicy.
- smcl 5y agoThis is interesting actually. I'd be curious to see what Korean food was like before the Americas were discovered. And you have now got me daydreaming about kimchi a full hour before lunchtime, thanks a lot :D

- smcl 5y agoHaha no problem I didn't have anything with kimchi and ended up going for Poke instead (https://www.pokecz.cz https://www.pokecz.cz)
- bobthepanda 5y agoThere’s a cookbook called the eumsik dimibang but I can’t find an English translation. It’s noticeable for both being the first Korean cookbook and being authored by a woman in the 1600s. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eumsik_dimibang https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eumsik_dimibang
