Rural Korean Soul Food in the American Midwest

Bomdong (spring cabbage) may be in season in Korea right now, but out here in the American countryside, radish is what I can easily get my hands on. So I made a simple mu-chae bibimbap with freshly shredded radish.

Add a couple spoonfuls of cheonggukjang on the side, and suddenly this humble meal turns into the most authentic, deeply Korean comfort food.
No trends, no fancy plating — just rustic, honest Korean soul food in the Midwest.
