When winter is
approaching, Koreans prepare big portion of Kimchi, called Kimjang.
After the long day
of hard work, the dinner is usually served with boiled pork to be served with
cured cabbage and the stuffing of Kimchi. I don’t think it is tradition of all
Korean families but it was at least for my family.
Therefore after the
Kimchi preparation I thought of this dish, Bossam.
Ssam is a noun
derived from a verb “to wrap”. Koreans like to wrap meat or fish with leafy
vegetables. Pork meat is usually served with shrimp sauce and often wrapped
with Kimchi.
