Deliciously cooked rice is heaped in the center of the plate with ten different ingredients on top, including bracken, deodeok, Pimpinella brachycarpa, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, zucchini and more. The rice is then surrounded by other ingredients such as oxtail terrine, pine nuts, ginkgo nuts, jujubes and various fresh vegetables. The remaining space is beautifully adorned with red pepper paste sauce, as if painted with a brush. The ingredients can be mixed all together or enjoyed bite by bite. 2 } Place steamed rice in the center and top with all the ingredients kept room temperature. 3 } Garnish with remaining products and serve with Korean chili paste sauce.
