Students interested in discovering culture through food came together. We shared meals to build connection. Through a speech of the Korean food and culture, we made a space for conversation, new fusion recipe ideas, and future community projects. More cooking sessions and cultural tastings are on the way!
In this session, we met outside of school to learn directly about the traditional Korean jar, hangari used for fermentation. We explored how its porous structure affects airflow, moisture exchange, and microbial activity, connecting cultural knowledge with scientific understanding.
We used traditional Korean jang to cook together, sharing food while learning the chemistry behind fermentation. The session became both a cultural workshop and a hands-on science activity.
