Korean-style Carrot
Morkovcha (Koryo-mar: /), also known as Korean-style carrots (russian: морковь по-корейски, morkov' po-koreyski) or Korean carrot salad ( uz, koreyscha sabzili salat), is a spicy marinated carrot salad. It is a Koryo-saram variant of kimchi. History Koryo-saram (ethnic Koreans located in post-Soviet cuisine, Soviet countries) created the dish as they did not have supplies of Napa cabbage, Baechu cabbage, the main ingredient in traditional kimchi. In Central Asia, where many Koryo-saram have lived since the Deportation of Koreans in the Soviet Union, deportation of 1937, the salad is also named morkovcha, which is a combination of Russian ''morkov'' ("carrot") and Koryo-mar ''cha'', derived from Korean ''chae'' () meaning salad-type banchan. The salad was unknown in South Korea until recently, when Koryo-saram#Return_migration_to_Korea, Russo-Koreans' return migration as well as Russian and Central Asian immigration became common.

Central Asian Cuisine
Central Asian cuisine has been influenced by Persian, Indian, Arab, Turkish, Chinese, Mongol, African, and Russian cultures, as well as the culinary traditions of other varied nomadic and sedentary civilizations. Contributing to the culinary diversity were the migrations of Uyghur, Slav, Korean, Tatar, Dungan and German people to the region. Background Nomadic peoples of the Eurasian steppe had simple subsistence diets based primarily on dairy products, and to a lesser extent game and plant-based foods. Excavations at Adji Kui in the Kara Kum Desert of Turkmenistan have shown the site was occupied between 2400 and 1300 BC. Archaeobotanical evidence has shown that crop diffusion was ongoing across the mountain valleys and oasis towns of Central Asia as early as the 3rd millennium BC. The earliest evidence of domesticated grains bring used by nomadic herders (2800 to 2300 BC) has been found at the Tasbas and Begash sites of the Kazakh highland steppe. ''Triticum turgidum'' and ...

''sativus'') is a root vegetable, typically orange in color, though purple, black, red, white, and yellow cultivars exist, all of which are domesticated forms of the Daucus carota, wild carrot, ''Daucus carota'', native to Europe and Southwestern Asia. The plant probably originated in Greater Iran, Persia and was originally cultivated for its leaves and seeds. The most commonly eaten part of the plant is the taproot, although the stems and leafy vegetable, leaves are also eaten. The domestic carrot has been Plant_breeding#Genetic_modification, selectively bred for its enlarged, more palatable, less woody-textured taproot. The carrot is a biennial plant in the umbellifer family, Apiaceae. At first, it grows a Rosette (botany), rosette of leaves while building up the enlarged taproot. Fast-growing cultivars mature within three months (90 days) of sowing the seed, while slower-maturing cultivars need a month longer (120 days). The roots cont ...

Vinegar
Vinegar is an aqueous solution of acetic acid and trace compounds that may include flavorings. Vinegar typically contains 5–8% acetic acid by volume. Usually, the acetic acid is produced by a double fermentation, converting simple sugars to ethanol using yeast, and ethanol to acetic acid by acetic acid bacteria. Many types of vinegar are available, depending on source materials. It is now mainly used in the culinary arts as a flavorful, acidic cooking ingredient, or in pickling. Various types are used as condiments or garnishes, including balsamic vinegar and malt vinegar. As the most easily manufactured mild acid, it has a wide variety of industrial and domestic uses, including use as a household cleaner.

Koryo-mar
, , or ( ko, 고려말, russian: Корё мар), otherwise known as () by speakers of the dialect, is a dialect of Korean spoken by the Koryo-saram, ethnic Koreans in the countries of the former Soviet Union. It is descended from the Hamgyŏng dialect and multiple other varieties of Northeastern Korean.

According to German Kim, Koryo-mar is not widely used in the media and is not taught in schools. Thus it can be classified as endangered. Names In the speech of Koryo-saram, the language is referred to as ( / ), with several alternative pronunciations, including () and ().
