4 x 6 in 16 - 20 Korean Vegan Recipes

Even if you’re not vegan or vegetarian, these recipes are perfect for incorporating more plant-based foods to your diet for a healthier New Year.

If you think Korean food is all about BBQ meat and fried chicken, think again! Traditionally, Korean cuisine relies heavily on grains, legumes, and vegetables. Meat was scarce, so our ancestors didn’t eat so much meat as we do in modern days.

Also, Korean temple cooking is entirely plant-based, using seasonal ingredients which are mostly grown in temple grounds or harvested from fields and mountains. No meat or seafood is allowed! Because of the long history of Buddhism in Korea, temple cuisine (사찰음식) is deeply incorporated into traditional Korean cuisine.

For these reasons, so many classic Korean dishes are naturally vegan (or vegetarian) or can easily be veganized!
