...and different cultural trends. Korean cuisine is largely based on rice, vegetables, and meats. Traditional Korean meals are noted for the number of side dishes (반찬; banchan) that accompany steam-cooked short-grain rice. Kimchi is almost always served at every meal. Commonly used ingredients include sesame oil, doenjang (fermented bean paste), soy sauce, salt, garlic, ginger, pepper flakes and gochujang (fermented red chili paste). Ingredients and dishes vary by province. Many regional dishes have become national, and dishes that were once regional have proliferated in different variations across the country. The Korean royal court cuisine once brought all of the unique regional specialties together for the royal family. Meals are regulated by Korean cultural etiquette.Korean cuisine has evolved through centuries of social and political change.

..., sauted mushroom, spinach, carrot, zucchini, bean sprouts, and onion. Topped with fried egg and served with hot pepper sauce. ”. I did not like the flavor of carrot so I asked a Dolsot Bibimbap without carrot in it. The dish got different colors from the vegetables and meat, which made it looked really nice. The waitress told me stird all the ingredients together, so it is basiclly like a korean mixed rice. The Dolsot, which is the hot stone pot, keeps cooking the rice even after the dish was served. I thought it was interesting and new to me. In Chinese food, we have the dishes called Xiang Guo, which is a hot pot has fire under it to keeps on cooking while serving. But in Korean food, they made the Dolsot very hot and use the heat from the pot itself to cook. So always be careful with it, do not burn yourself. The owner told us Korean people say Jalmukesumneda before start eating, which mean I am going to eat very well today. I have tried one bite before I add the hot pepper sauce, but it was light and tasteless. The hot pepper sauce was served on site, so base on your preferences, you can decided how much you want to add in your bowl. It tasted...

...aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration is more efficient and can be used in the presence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration, or cell respiration using oxygen, uses the end product of glycolysis in the TCA cycle to produce more energy currency in the form of ATP than can be obtained from an anaerobic pathway. Fermentation (anaerobic respiration) (2 points) Fermentation is a metabolic process converting sugar to acids, gases or alcohol. It occurs in yeast and bacteria, but also in oxygen-starved human muscle cells. Fermentation is used by humans to make beer and food, like kimchi. Fermentation is a form of anaerobic digestion that generates ATP by the process of substrate-level phosphorylation. Summarize what occurs during the three steps of cellular respiration and indicate where each process takes place in the cell. (6 points) Glycolysis: It is a process that occurs in the cytoplasm. It converts each molecule of glucose to two molecules of pyruvic acid. It refers to an anaerobic process that proceeds whether or not oxygen is present or not. The pyruvic acid diffuses into the inner compartment of the mitochondrion where a transition reaction occurs that starts to prepare pyruvic acid for the next stage of respiration. Krebs cycle-This is the second step and is also called as the Citric Acid Cycle. Uses the pyruvate molecules from Glycolysis to generate 2 ATP as well as several molecules of FADH2 and NADH for the electron transport chain. Krebs cycle takes place...

...Now, if you’re willing to do the footwork, I’ll lay down a great tour to get a taste of the classic, traditional, quirky, and new. You’ll need comfortable walking shoes and an ample appetite. Day 1 – The Touristy North You gotta hit the main spots in your first couple of days. Gwanghwamun, one of the palaces, your first of many trips to Insa-dong. My rules in this area are to look for places off the main road, packed with office workers. Avoid places that look like franchises. Also avoid Korean restaurants with Japanese written up front. Those are tourist traps. Gwanghwamun Jip 광화문집 Up near the palaces is one of the last holes-in-the-wall in Seoul that is legendary for its kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew). It’s a tight squeeze, but luckily ordering is easy. They basically only serve two things–kimchi jjigae and gyeran mari (rolled omelette). The jjigae is notable for its sourness and spice, which balances well with the smooth omelette. It’s a good way to wake you up. Explore Gwangjang Market and try some bindaeddeok. That’s always fun. For dinner you can head down a bit. Samhae Jip 삼해집 I just tried this place out recently. I’ve been on the hunt for restaurants with some history. In the alley maze south of Jongno 3-ga Station is a joint that has been...

...This is what turns the tea fizzy and tangy. It is a rubbery raft that floats on the surface of the Kombucha. Aside from being a home for yeast and positive bacteria, the SCOBY seals off the fermenting Kombucha from the air and protects it from outside, undesirable bacteria’s while it's fermenting. It can take up to a week or more for the tea to ferment (Lehman, S., & Fogoros, R. N. (n.d.). Nutrition Facts). You'll also sometimes hear SCOBY’s referred to as "kombucha mothers" or "kombucha mushrooms." Just like yogurt, kefir, and kimchi, Kombucha is loaded with beneficial bacteria (11 Things…Know Before Trying Kombucha. (n.d.)). Kombucha has many benefits, including protecting the lungs, improving mental health, helping manage diabetes, helping maintain a healthy liver and promoting disease prevention. It also contains antioxidants which are good for your heart health and may also help to lower your risk of infections and some forms of cancer (Kombucha Tea: Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Dosage, and Warning....

...South Korea is a sovereign state in East Asia, located on the southern portion of the Korean Peninsula. It is neighbored by the People’s Republic of China to the west, Japan to the east, North Korea to the north, and the East China Sea and Republic of China to the south. Like most ethnic group throughout the world, South Koreans have their own food culture to suit their unique history and climate. Not only has the geographical boundaries which separate it from its neighbors impacted on the food culture of the nation, but the four distinct seasons have also influenced what South Koreans eat. There are various type of traditional food in South Korea such as Ttok Kuk, Ogokbap and Kimchi. Ttok kuk or rice cake soup is a typical Korea traditional food they eat on New Year. Ttok kuk contain several meanings. First of all, it means when you have a dish of ttok kuk you are one year older. They do not count the age on the basis of their birthday but on the basis of every New Year’s Day. Nowadays they eat ttok kuk any day of the year they like other than New Year’s day but in the past it was only on New Year’s Day. Older people would ask, how many dishes of ttok kuk you had, “2 dishes” definitely will not be the answer. Because one soup is equals to one year of life, the more you eat, the more you age. Second, another name for ttok kuk is “byung tang”, which means broth made of ttok. Ttok kuk also a dish that wish for a year you won’t get ill after ate this dish. They wish to live...

This will be helpful in determining the proper storage techniques that will maintain the physical and nutritional qualities of food items. This experiment is done in the Bio-assay Laboratory, Institute of Human Nutrition and Food, College of Human Ecology, UPLB. II.Review of Literature Pechay, scientifically known as Brassica rapa chinensis, is considered as one of the popular vegetables here in the Philippines. It is characterized by its broad, green leaves wrapped in its succulent, whitish compact head. This is mostly used in Chinese dishes such as pancit and kimchi, since it is also known as the Chinese cabbage. The physical properties of pechay, like its leaves, may determine its appropriate function, cookery, and storage. The leaves of pechay play an important role in this study, since...

...Inter Cultural Paper In order to satisfy my thirst regarding the Asian culture and fulfill my “obligation” to my professor and myself I have studied and explored the Korean culture from every possible angle in the past nine weeks. One of the main topics that I found very intriguing and fun was my personal experience in Korea Town when I visited several celebrated sights for my final assignment. My first visit was at the Korean Cultural Center. The landmark provided a fair share of information about the Korean culture here in Los Angeles. The two stories building had many different exhibits about the past, the present and events that realistically showed the Korean traditional life from every possible angle. Historical artifacts, antic fixtures, customary clothing, paintings, and sculptures were among the many items that represented the vibrant Korean life in every detail. Traditional musical instruments were also represented; the Kayagum 12 string instrument that is used in folk music. The Kayagum is made from a rectangular board of paulownia wood with silk strings stretched across it. Another traditional instrument that got my attention during my stay was the Pyonjong percussion instrument that constructed with two rows of 8 metal bells, thus giving the instrument a range of precisely 16 tones. There were many other different types of plucked string, bowed string, struck string, transverse wind, vertical wind, and percussion instruments just name a few that illustrated...

...October 15, 2009 1.) A: “One is that Germany was too "green" for a slash-and-burn outfit like Wal-mart, with its plastic bags and plastic junk Another is that Wal-mart couldn't hack the pro-labor union culture of Germany. Another is that Germany is anti-American when it comes to name-brand retailers (even though Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks are popular there).” B: Wal-mart failed because of their lack of knowledge, of foreign countries. In order for Wal-mart to have a successful business over seas, is to do research about the particular country that they want their cultural business to be located. “There are many reasons why Wal- Mart’s business model failed in Germany, such as Cultural attitudes, Customer Service, and Cultural arrogance all contributed to what one economist referred to as a failure. But under these basic economic decisions were a host of basic cross- cultural mistakes that fuelled the company’s poor strategic planning.” They had the right idea on how to approach Germany, but they didn‘t do their research on the country it‘s self. “Wal-Mart failed to take into account Germany’s cultural attitudes, especially with regard to such matters as labor law and the role of unions.” Wal-mart’s guide lines are focusing on just the company and not about the different countries values. “Wal-Mart also runs afoul of requirements that workers‟ representatives be consulted before introducing changes in working conditions.” If Wal-mart would have did more research on...

...They had about 12 to 14 people; they were having fun and getting drunk. Some of the guys use the bowl to drink the korean sake and they started talking louder and louder. The korean waitress served us the entrees: kimchi, sweet potatos, bean sprout, etc. I love all of them especially the sweet potatos. I could see that both big bro and big sis love the entrees too because there was none left. Here we came the main dishes: the pork, the beef, prawn and scallops etc. While the korean waitress was serving us by putting the food in the BBQ pot, big bro started talking to her. She was on working holiday visa, and her boss offered her an accommdation. She was busy talking to big bro, and serve the other tables, so she forgot a piece of pumpkin on top of the hot pot. Big bro told her that he thought that piece of pumpkin was ready. She realised that it was overcooked, and had a laugh on it. The...

...favored very fast detection of fear expressions on the faces of others (e.g. Palermo & Rhodes, 2007), so one can avoid whatever predator or attacker is inciting the fear. By contrast, given that human mate choice and courtship typically require at least a few hours, with a large investment of conscious, attentive, thoughtful interaction (Geher & Miller, 2007; Miller, 2000), a speed advantage of a few hundred milliseconds in judging facial attractiveness seems trivial. This point raises a problem with “automaticity” as a generic criterion for adaptedness: if a perceptual decision already happens in less than a second with barely noticeable demands on attention and feeds into a process of social or sexual interaction that lasts for at least a few minutes, as most significant interactions with conspecifics do, then there may be no fitness benefits of pushing the perceptual process to be even faster or less attention demanding than it already is. Barrett et al. (2006) made a similar argument against automaticity for more leisurely social and sexual judgment tasks. This study has several limitations that should be addressed in further research. The participants were all young adult female university students in the United States, with about half being Anglo (white/Caucasian) and half being Hispanic (with various levels of genetic admixture from European and Native American populations). Results might differ for participants of different ages and sexes, or, less plausibly, for participants...
