Re: How many banchan do you keep on hand?

JamieF, thanks for the reminder, soybean sprouts (kongnamul gukso) is a terrific side dish and it cooks up well alongside the spinach one.

My baby daughter took a long nap so I now have spinach side dish, eggplant side dish (sautéed with lots of oil plus sesame oil soy sauce, garlic and sesame seeds), kosari for bimbimbap and and julienned carrot for the same, although I made it Japanese-style as a kinpira.
