Abstract:
Nowadays, with healthy living and the 'slow food' movement receiving spotlight worldwide, Korean cuisine is drawing much interest as a healthy cuisine with nutritional harmony and balance. In fact, Koreans have traditionally viewed food as 'medicine, ' a means to keep oneself healthy and strong. Korea's four seasons and geography have produced a good many seasonal dishes and foods that reflect the nation's geographic characteristics, such as seafood from the ocean that surrounds the peninsula. This book will attempt to explore Korea's-year-old culinary culture and introduce to readers the historical, cultural, nutritional and philosophical background to this rich cuisine
