Introduction Gimbap or kimbap is a popular Korean dish made from steamed white rice (bap) and various other ingredients, rolled in gim (sheets of dried laver seaweed) and served in bite-size slices.

Gimbap is derived from Japanese futomaki (Makizushi) during the Japanese rule (1910-1945), but now has certain distinctive elements not found in Japanese-style makizushi.Whereas the essence of Japanese sushi is vinegared rice, gimbap does not use rice vinegar but rather sesame oil. Varieties Short grain white rice is usually used, although short-grain brown rice, like olive oil on gim, is now becoming more widespread among the healthconscious. Rarely, sweet rice is mixed in gimbap rice. Nowadays, the rice in gimbap can be many kinds of black rice, boiled rice and cereals etc. Gim is dried, pressed seaweed made from the edible species, laver. Gim may be roasted and seasoned w
