Korean Cuisine
Korean cuisine has evolved through centuries of social and political change. Originating from ancient agricultural and nomadic traditions in Korea and southern Manchuria, Korean cuisine reflects a complex interaction of the natural environment and different cultural trends. Korean cuisine is largely based on rice, vegetables, seafood and (at least in South Korea) meats. Dairy is largely absent from the traditional Korean diet. Traditional Korean meals are named for the number of side dishes (반찬; 飯饌; ''banchan'') that accompany steam-cooked short-grain rice. Kimchi is served at nearly every meal. Commonly used ingredients include sesame oil, ''doenjang'' (fermented bean paste), soy sauce, salt, garlic, ginger, ''gochugaru'' (pepper flakes), '' gochujang'' (fermented red chili paste) and napa cabbage. Ingredients and dishes vary by province. Many regional dishes have become national, and dishes that were once regional have proliferated in different variations ...

''Katsuobushi'' or similarly prepared fish is also known as . Shaved ''katsuobushi'' and dried kelp—''kombu''—are the main ingredients of ''dashi'', a broth that forms the basis of many soups (such as miso) and sauces (e.g., ''soba no tsukejiru'') in Japanese cuisine. ''Katsuobushi''s distinct umami taste comes from its high inosinic acid content. Traditionally made ''katsuobushi'', known as ''karebushi'', is deliberately fermented with ''Aspergillus glaucus'' fungus in order to reduce moisture. ''Katsuobushi'' has also been shown to impart "kokumi" (i.e. enhances flavor). Traditional production process The fish is beheaded, gutted, and filleted, with the fatty belly, which does not lend well to being preserved, trimmed off.

Cephalopod Ink
Cephalopod ink is a dark-coloured or luminous ink released into water by most species of cephalopod, usually as an escape mechanism. All cephalopods, with the exception of the Nautilidae and the Cirrina (deep-sea octopuses), are able to release ink to confuse predators. The ink is released from the ink sacs (located between the gills) and is dispersed more widely when its release is accompanied by a jet of water from the siphon. Its dark color is caused by its main constituent, melanin. Each species of cephalopod produces slightly differently coloured inks; generally, octopuses produce black ink, squid ink is blue-black, and cuttlefish ink is a shade of brown. A number of other aquatic molluscs have similar responses to attack, including the gastropod clade known as sea hares. Types of ink shapes The shapes taken by ink releases are classified as six types: * pseudomorphs; * pseudomorph series; * ink ropes; * clouds/smokescreens; * diffuse puffs; * mantle fills. Inking be ...

Fried Rice
Fried rice is a dish of cooked rice that has been stir-fried in a wok or a frying pan and is usually mixed with other ingredients such as eggs, vegetables, seafood, or meat.
