About This Kimchi Cooking Class in Seoul

Looking for a one-of-a-kind kimchi cooking class in Seoul that goes beyond the basics? This experience combines hands-on cooking with professional wine pairing, all led by a former wine bar owner and certified sommelier.

You’ll not only learn how to make delicious kimchi-based dishes; you’ll also discover how to pair Korea’s signature fermented food with the perfect glass of wine.

🥬 Part 1: Kimchi Tasting & Introduction

Start your culinary journey by tasting four unique types of kimchi:

• Classic cabbage kimchi
• Mild white kimchi
• Crunchy radish kimchi
• Rich and tangy aged kimchi

As you taste, your host will explain the fermentation process, origin, and flavor notes of each type – along with insights on why certain wines enhance their complexity.

🔥 Part 2: Hands-On Kimchi Cooking

Choose and cook one main dish using kimchi as the star ingredient. You’ll be guided step-by-step as you prepare one of the following:

• Kimchi Pancake (crispy and savory)
• White Kimchi Noodles (refreshing and tangy)
• Radish-Bacon Stir-Fried Rice (hearty and satisfying)
• Menu may vary slightly depending on the number of guests and ingredients available.

🍖 Bonus Dish: Aged Kimchi with Braised Pork Belly

While you cook, your host will serve a pre-prepared signature dish: aged kimchi with braised pork belly. It’s a deeply flavorful dish that takes hours to prepare and is rarely taught to beginners (but you’ll get to taste the best of it).

🥂 Part 3: Wine Pairing & Shared Meal

Gather around the table to share all the dishes, including the host’s specialty. As you eat, enjoy a thoughtfully paired glass of wine selected by your sommelier to complement the flavors of kimchi and Korean cuisine.

You’ll leave the class not only with new cooking skills, but with a better understanding of how wine and Korean food can harmonize (something few travelers ever experience).
