The combination of salted Myeong Ran, or cod roe, and wild sesame rice
topped with the crunch of fried quinoa build the perfect balance between the salty and savory
profiles. Make sure to mix well before eating!

Myeong Ran Bibimbap / 명란 비빔밥
Serves: 2-3

Ingredients:
250 g Base Rice
2 g Gim Powder
3 tsp Basic Aioli (can substitute with Mayo)
3 g Yangjo Soy Sauce
8 g Yondu (Vegetable Umami)
20 g Washed Kimchi
Gamtae Seaweed
8-9 Egg Yolks, Sous-Vide
Myeong Ran
Fried Quinoa
10 g Artisanal Sesame Oil
Fried Quinoa:
Quinoa 200g
Water 200g
Base Rice:
200 g White Rice
200 g Pearl Barley
430 g Water
Gim Powder:
1 sheet Dried Seaweed
Basic Aioli:
57 g Egg Yolk
3 g Campaign Vinegar
5 g Lemon Juice
2 g Garlic, minced
350 g Canola Oil
Prep:
1. Rinse quinoa 2-3 times. Use the rice cooker to cook. After cooking, rinse again 2-3 times and dehydrate
at room temperature for 3 days. Then, fry the quinoa in oil at 380°F - 400°F for around 10 seconds.
This will give it a nice puff, a golden brown color and a nutty flavor.
2. Put 8-9 egg yolks in a zip-bag and cook 30 to 40 minutes at 68°F.
3. To make the Base Rice, rinse the white rice and barley 2-3 times and use the rice cooker to cook.
4. In the meantime, make your Gim Powder and Basic Aioli. For the Gim Powder,
roast the gim on the pan and then grind finely. For the Basic Aioli, combine the egg yolks, vinegar, lemon juice
and garlic in a bowl and mix. While whisking, slowly start to incorporate the canola oil
until aioli becomes thick and shiny. Set aside.
Directions:


5. In a bowl, add the base rice, soy sauce, yondu, gim powder and the basic aioli and mix well.
Don’t forget to add the washed kimchi! It will reduce the oily flavor
and improve the valance of the dish.


6. To plate, place the rice in a bowl and top with gamtae seaweed and sous-vide egg yolk.
Place slices of the Myeong Ran on top and sprinkle fried quinoa over one side.
Finish with sesame oil. Must be mixed well to enjoy!
