Bibimbap

Bibimbap is a savory dish featuring steamed rice topped with sautéed vegetables, such as cucumber, zucchini, bell peppers, carrots, and spinach. Tender slices of marinated beef steak add protein and flavor. A fried egg crowns the dish, while gochujang, a spicy Korean chili paste, provides heat. Garlic, scallions, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil create a balanced umami taste.

Bibimbap, a savory Korean dish featuring sautéed beef, vegetables, and a spicy gochujang sauce over rice, pairs well with a crisp white wine like Grüner Veltliner. The wine's high acidity and subtle spice notes complement the dish's bold flavors. Alternatively, a light-bodied Pinot Noir or a sparkling rosé can balance the umami-rich ingredients and refresh the palate between bites.
