In 2023, we developed the sustainable K-FOOD recipes with Chef Juliette, following the vegan-oriented recipe of 2022. Because this is a A New Emerging Food Trend in the EU. Korean food ingredients are largely grown responsibly and in an environmentally friendly manner, helping to preserve local ecosystems.
Korean cuisine favors traditional fermentation techniques to preserve food without the use of chemical additives or environmentally harmful preservatives, with kimchi being a prime example. Low-temperature cooking techniques are also very common, preserving the flavor and texture of ingredients while reducing energy consumption.
To spread this value more widely and correctly, we presented the recipes in the format of cooking class, by inviting the media and influencers in the maison de Busan. You can check the video of the recipes and the cooking class!
