Cooking tips

Squeeze as much moisture as possible from the aged kimchi so the gimbap stays neat and not soggy when rolled.
Remove every bit of oil from the canned tuna to prevent the filling from becoming watery when mixed with mayonnaise.
Wrapping the tuna in a perilla leaf first keeps the filling from spilling out and helps you roll a tidy gimbap.
