Narrator: What does it mean if you are asked to bring a plate? An empty plate?
[crickets chirping]
Oh, I get it! Bring a plate. In Australia, bring a plate means to bring a plate of food to share. In this series, we'll learn about the English language. So next time you're asked to bring a plate, you'll feel more confident in sharing your dish with others and asking about theirs. It's all about coming together.
Welcome to "Bring A Plate".
The group have all enjoyed some chicken together. Now it's time for something else. Okay, who's here? That’s Lee, JC, Nimi, Rayan, Keyma and Rachel. Hey Rachel.
Rachel: Well, for today, I think in Korea terms of bring a plate, I think that's more about sharing. So I thought about bossam, which is Korean dish.
Narrator: Rachel would love to tell the group about her dish, and there's a way to help her do this. It's called D-I-S-H, or DISH. Each letter helps them remember what to say.
D is for describe. What is the name of the dish and what does it taste like?
I is for ingredients. What's in the dish?
S is for special. What is special about the dish?
And H is for how. How do you cook it and how do you eat it?
Rachel: Bossam itself, it means packaged, wrapped. It's not about boiled pork, it's not about kimchi. It's all about having all in harmony. The dish is salty, sour and sweet, all in one bite.
Narrator: Ooh, that looks really good, Rachel. Those flavors go so well together.
Lee: What are the ingredients?
Rachel: Well, so the ingredients, boiled pork. I boiled it with some gingers and every spices, as well as kimchi. It's a salted cabbage with some chilli pepper and garlic and some fish sauce and salted shrimp in it. And I’m grounding it and I mix it all together with the cabbage.
Nimi: And any specific spices you have used in it?
Rachel: I think it's a chilli pepper and it just makes every kimchi different because like good quality chilli pepper makes your kimchi taste better.
Keyma: This looks amazing. So when do you eat something like this?
Narrator: Is it for a special occasion?
Rachel: Well, I grew up in South Korea. In Korea, bossam is a great party food, something you can make when you invite people into your home. It's funny because even though the pork looks like the main dish, it is the kimchi that is most important in Korea. It is never considered a side dish. It is the hero. When we eat kimchi in Korea, we are always tasting how each family makes their own kimchi and what story it tells about them. It is similar to how some people drink wine. You taste the kimchi and try to work out the story, what region the family is from and what personality they might have. But all kimchi tastes like home to me.
JC: Yeah, that's awesome, interesting. So when we eat the kimchi, we'll know your personality.
Rachel: Yeah, please guess. Feel free. So before we start eating bossam, can I please ask if you guys have any dietary requirements?
Narrator: Some people might have food allergies or cultural or religious reasons for not eating certain foods.
Lee: I actually don't eat pork, but I would like to try some of the kimchi and some of the spices.
Keyma: Okay Rachel, you have to tell me how do you eat it?
Narrator: I was wondering the same thing.
Rachel: So first I put some pork and I put some salted shrimp sauce and then some garlic, as well as some chilli. And I put a little bit of soybean paste in the kimchi. So, yeah, just a little bit of everything and just you wrap it like that and then just bite.
JC: Should we dig in?
Rachel: Yes, let's do it.
