The taste of Korean mountains, captured in one bowl of bibimbap.
Dried Bracken (Gosari) is one of Korea’s most beloved mountain greens — a tender fern shoot that is harvested in spring, carefully dried, and later brought back to life in soups, stews, and classic bibimbap. This 80g pack contains 100% Korean-grown bracken, produced by Seoraksan Green Food, a trusted maker of domestic dried vegetables for over 30 years.
Each batch is made from fresh, seasonal greens that are harvested at their peak, cleaned, and dried with care. Through years of experience and traditional methods, these dried vegetables are known for their deep flavor and rich aroma, and are highly favored by supermarkets and eco-friendly stores throughout Korea. With hygienic small-batch packaging and honest production, this bracken offers a clean, trustworthy ingredient that families of all ages can enjoy as a daily side dish.
In Korean cuisine, gosari is considered a signature “namul” (seasoned vegetable dish). Once rehydrated, it has a soft yet pleasantly chewy texture and a gentle, earthy taste that pairs beautifully with soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, and perilla oil. Naturally high in dietary fiber, bracken is often enjoyed as part of balanced meals that feel light yet satisfying. Use it in bibimbap, yukgaejang, stir-fries, stews, and rice dishes whenever you want to add authentic Korean depth.
