Traditional
Yeonipbap
연잎밥
Unwrap rice steamed in a lotus leaf and a gentle aroma turns on full temple-food mode. Jujubes, chestnuts and ginkgo nuts dotted throughout look neat, and it feels like a mind cleanse. A moment of calm in a busy day.

❝ Yeonipbap is a signature of Korean Buddhist temple cuisine. Lotus leaves have natural antibacterial properties, so food doesn't spoil easily. Packing it as a lunchbox was old-school wisdom from the days before cooler bags. ❞
