@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageTteokbokki everywhere? Not a surprise. As we head into a new year, global food trends are leaning into sweet-spicy flavors, nostalgic comfort, and dishes rooted in everyday culture. Tteokbokki sits right at that intersection. From its chewy rice cakes to its bold, warming sauce, this is Korean street food that’s always been craveable even long before it became a trend. Trends may spotlight it, but this is food with history. Did you know? Tteokbokki was recently named one of the global food trends to watch in a @natgeotravel feature.2 hours ago via Instagram
@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageAd. Korean food is so much more than trends. It’s about everyday life, care, and food that’s meant to be shared. Kimchi isn’t something we eat once in a while…it’s on the table year-round, passed down through generations and made with intention. I loved being part of this thoughtful piece exploring how Korean food is finding its place in the UK, not by competing with other cuisines, but by being understood on its own terms. Grateful to be part of this exploration of Korean food and culture in the UK, in partnership with @ocadouk. Thank you to @bbcnews and @jijiyoung.tv for telling this story so beautifully.

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageAd. An authentic Korean meal is never complete without banchan: the colorful side dishes that bring every feast to life. 🇰🇷✨ The Korean table is usually laid edge to edge with these small little plates…and, if you’re out to impress, the more the better! @ocadouk’s Korean aisle makes it so easy for you to get all the ingredients you need for your banchan, delivered straight to your door.

The key is balance and the “rule of five”: every meal should have a mix of five flavours, textures, and colours. Here are some of the most common banchan you’ll find: 🥬 Kimchi — the must-have
🍚 Steamed short-grain rice
🍲 Soup (a staple of any Korean table)
🍳 Gyeran-jjim (fluffy egg souffle)
🌿 Fresh salads — scallion salad, green salad, crudités with ssamjang
🥒 Pickled veggies — radish, cucumber, lotus root & more
🥔 Korean potato salad (yes… it’s a thing!)
🐟 Grilled fish — croaker or mackerel are classics
🥞 Jeon — savoury pancakes
🥬 Seasoned vegetables — spinach, bean sprouts, etc.
🍖 Braised meats — soy-braised beef, and more
🐠 Dried fish & seafood And if you’re eating barbecue, you’ll also find lettuce leaves (ssam) for wrapping and our barbecue sauce, ssamjang on the table.  #KoreanREcipes #Bulgogi #Banchan #KoreanBBQ #KoreanCuisine2 weeks ago via Instagram
