I remember as a kid in korea eating this every winter, almost everyday on the street. On my way back from school. And sometimes I didn't have money and the lady who makes it would give it to me for free because she didn't want to see me hungry. Warm cozy memory of winter.
This is such a sweet story.
Great story! I can't wait to try making it!!
I love your story. As I was reading I could see it all playing out in my mind. Such a lovely story. Also, God bless the kind lady who made this for you.
Beautiful story 😊
It's the 정 of koreans.
"Do not mess this up by trying to use bread with any nutritional value." Amen
Then it is useless... sorry but as a diabetic that makes it a fail.
as is the sugar
He has other more diabetic friendly dishes. Unfortunately not everything will fit all diets.
👏❤️
Joseph Teller what makes you or anyone think that the world should revolve around you? Truth is nobody gives a damn.
what i love about about chef john is how he varies his recipes, he doesnt exclusively cook american/italian food with a sprinkle of cayenne, he actually reseaches and features other kinds of cuisine. I remember when he posted paraguayan flatbread (mbeju) from my home country i felt so validated and seen, i never saw my fav youtubers ever mention my country, and now with this korean recipe is so nice to see how much he recommends and loves it
You just reccomended me my next video thanks
Chef John is the GOAT. Fast, funny, does his research on other cultures cuisines, and respects the viewers time.
Yep. I have never seen anything from Paraguay. Nice country. I'll try to remember to checkout the flatbread video.
Hes introduced me to so many types of cooking styles and methods! Chef John is the man!!
I have created a monster. I made this for my girlfriend Tuesday, she made them for her mother and daughter on Wednesday, and we had them for breakfast today. But instead of ham I used applewood smoked bacon. Because after all, I am the Donny Most of my Korean Street toast.
Bacon is a fantastic idea.
You've still gottit! 😂
@@srh76able I was JUST going to say that. HA HA HA Love it!!
Donny Most! Hahaha. I like the bacon idea. And I'm thinking a Korean chili sauce aioli.
"The Donny Most of your Street Toast"
CLASSIC !!
As a korean it gives me such joy that a channel like chef John's features korean food
@@Nihlstorp As if koreans could not name their child however they want xD You are probably the racist here my dude.
@@Nihlstorp There's so much wrong with your comment I don't even know where to start. Wtf is wrong with you? How does him being named Jacob make him racist?
@@Nihlstorp how is me having a western name racist? 한국말이나 해요? Have a little respect before calling someone a liar, you literally dont know anything about me
@@jonasrappo3733 Forget it he's just dumb. Like it's such a stretch for a Korean to have an old biblical name in a country with many christians or maybe he's korean-american or maybe he's like me and his mom like mine is fond of american names even tho I'm french.
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought Chef John would be telling us to source some kimchi. Is it traditionally made with plain julienned carrots and cabbage, not kimchi?
"which is fine, I have an expense account"
Not sure why this cracked me up so much
He could use the rest for baking, and also it's what you use to makes hummingbird nectar for feeders.
Because most people don't need an expense account to afford squeeze bottles.
His wife, in the background: _"JOOOOOOHHHHHHNNNNNNNN!"_
Sold!❤
I sincerely love how Chef John assumes that some people who are watching need some very basic instructions, like how to julienne vegetables, without rubbing in the fact that he's teaching us. 💖
different from you
Wow I've been watching Chef John for over 10 years but never thought I'd see my childhood Korean Street toast recipe from his channel. 🤣🇰🇷🔥💯
Chef John is the Space Ghost of the Korean Street Toast
On which coast?
Mmmmm ... Can you do a whole street food series?
Love this idea.
VOTE THIS UP!!! GREAT IDEA!!!
Yes please! I think sandwiches are overlooked and it would be nice to learn new ways to make them.
Love this idea!
yasss!
Hands-down, the strangest sandwich I have ever made and probably the most delicious! Yes, the sugar is essential.
Delicious!!!! I made this for lunch! I asked my husband if he wanted one, he looked at the ingredients and said "no". When it was ready, I had him try a bite, well.... lo and behold, he wouldn't give me back my sandwich. He loved it!!! crazy ingredient, but it works!!!
I found out about this through Maangchii's recipe and kinda remixed it by adding bacon and tonkatsu sauce, making it into a sort of okonomiyaki street toast. It was one of the most delicious things I'd ever eaten in my life.
Maangchi's great 👍
I was just wondering if I could use tonkatsu instead since this is so similar to okonomiyaki. Definitely need to try this soon :)
Okonomiyaki was the first thing I thought of too. As soon as he started cooking the egg and vegetables.
...I'll keep this in mind.
Me, too.
Chef John, since traveling abroad now is limited due to Covid, please do more of these videos. Street food is so underrated!! Please take us around the world and show us how to recreate dishes some of us would probably never get the opportunity to taste. Thank you.
@@tangocharlie9291 lol
I think that's a great idea!
If I got to travel the world, street food would be high on the list of things to do
I made this and all of the flavors blending together was beyond amazing, this should be sold in America in restaurants, around the world even. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you for introducing Korean street food. As a Korean, I'm pleased to see this wonderful video on TH-cam.
How about as a human. What is your emotion on that front?
I used to eat this street toast everyday for breakfast when I was in university. Now I make it for my kids and Canadian husband and the LOVE it too. It’s exciting to see a famous chef like you making my home-food. Thank you 🥰
Do you make is the exact same way? I've heard there are several different methods
@@phillystevesteak6982 try channel of Korean chef Maangchi (which was recommended to me by Korean lady). She made those sandwiches in pretty much same way. Btw she also has the best ever kimchi recipe. "I really Hope you will give this a try"!
Swear every asian woman has a white husband
@@phillystevesteak6982 I put onions and carrots, not cabbage. I find cabbages take the egg flavour away. Just my personal preference.
@@szymonmaraszewski1514 yeah I’m a HUGE fan of Maangchi! She’s awesome! I’m making her Nabak Kimchi for Christmas dinner!
Since I am extra broke this year, I have been on the lookout for something that is different, cheap, and easy to get ingredients for. This fits the bill perfectly, definitely going to try it!
You can also fry the cabbage, carrots, a little onions (add your favorite seasoning. For me chicken bouillon is a must). Then add shredded chicken and add mustard and mayo (or just thousand islands) and mix it all together. Make a sandwich 🥪 with that, it's delicious 😋😋
So how did it turn out for you?!
As a Korean i verify and approve this recipe!
22 hours ago I posted a comment. I went to bed after having made one for lunch. I had to get out of bed at 9:00 pm to make another one! It’s breakfast, and I’m making another as I type. My wife likes it, and two of my kids like them. This is truly an amazing meal.
Wow.
What a perfect toast.
Especially the sugar was right.
From Koreans
Lived in Korea for over five years as an English teacher. These were many of my breakfasts (minus the sauce). This looks very authentic to what I have seen and ate. Also, for some reason Koreans put sugar on everything, even garlic bread, garlic bread. Friends i knew would recommend Italian places simply with, "They don't put sugar on their garlic bread."
I think it might be because they still mostly consider rice as proper meals. Anything that isn't rice is mostly considered as snack.
Didn’t you hear, 10% of Subway bread dough is sugar?
@@CodyCha
Not exactly. The flour to sugar ratio is 10:1. There's more in there than just those 2 ingredients.
And that was in Ireland. In America, most of their bread has 3 grams sugar per 6 inch.
That's 12 calories. But they have to list it because they added it. Just because they added it, doesn't mean you're going to eat it.
A small amount of sugar is necessary to feed the yeast, otherwise it takes a long damn time to make bread.
Big companies don't just make a recipe and start selling it. They have groups of people from every area they sell in taste testing.
Apparently in Ireland they like their sandwich bread sweeter than we do.
And you can't really fault a company for selling people what they want.
@@lordgarion514 there’s no difference between subway bread sold in the US and England/Ireland. What the Irish court was referring to is raw ingredients. What you’re talking about is nutrition data of baked bread.
White privilege :)
I just made this for lunch after watching this video. Damn Korea, i knew your bbq and bulgogi was good but this was a surprise.
“... you are glen close of your Korean street roast” that is a sentence I never thought I’d hear. And I’ve been eating this gilguri toast since middle school!! Major kudos to you chef John!!
Is there a greater daily life honour than being early for a Food Wishes video?
No
@@foodwishes Well, getting a response from the mighty Chef John is bigger!
@@juliovic.silvaar.2949 You answered your own question
Food Wishes LOL!
I was skeptical, almost to the point of skipping this video. Note to self: Leave all doubt behind when entering Chef JohnVille.
Right? Me too!
At first I was afraid, I was petrified, then there was Chef John right by my side... Sorry...
@@chrismoore9686 Please show yourself out...
For real lol
I’ve been guilty of writing off something before trying it, but when it turns out great it’s amazing.
I made this and it was delicious. I made it for myself because I wasn't sure that my husband would like it, so after it was assembled, I gave him a bite and he really enjoyed it. The last time I made this, I used sliced turkey and it was great also. I watched several other people make Korean Street toast and they followed their own favorite additions and/or subtractions.
First of all...I’m definitely making this for me and my hubby and second, I’ve been making chef John recipes for years via allrecipes! I just found this channel 10 minutes ago and I’m so excited yay!
That is quite the rabbit hole to find and go down, but I will guarantee it will be delicious and entertaining. The puns and jokes are top notch and with guest stars like “Cayenne” and “freakishly small wooden spoon” you never know what’s going to happen 😁
I got into a Korean street food youtube recommendation feedback loop, and I have concluded that Koreans have a strong love of things that are toasted, and things that have 3 or more different sauces.
Also everything has to be annoyingly neat, perfectly round/square, etc.
You forgot the sugar on everything.
Wow! Honestly, as a Korean, I was really surprised to find this toast on Chef John's Channel. You can easily find people eating this toast in front of the foodtruck.
I checked but couldn't find any. There was just a bunch of Mexicans eating tacos.
@@chanfonseka8051 Keyword 'korean toast seoul'. You can easily find it in S.KOREA. The famous one is 'issac toast', but is;sac toast is slightly different from the one in clip. The version of the one in the clip is foodtruck version(in Korean, 'pojangmacha' version) and quite common as a breakfast.
This was amazing! My family was hesitant to try it but they did and everyone agreed it was delicious. Thank you, Chef John!
Love this and totally see how it becomes a street food vendor staple. This takes you significantly less time each time you make it. So one of the things I really love with it is it has one of the best time spent cooking to interesting and tasty meal ratio I have ever encountered. With just a bit of practice you can really easily and quickly whip this up and yet it tastes more complex and interesting then most things you can whip up very quickly.
My mom used to make it for me and my brother when we were little .. I didn’t know these were korean street toasts because we had immigrated to the states when my brother and I were still young and didn’t have the chance to eat them in Korea. I remember them being so delicious! Now I live in Korea by myself but it’s quite hard to find them here .. and my mom passed some time ago so thank you so much for the recipe! I will try them soon.
A crossover in my life I didn't know was going to happen.
What do you mean
Right? From all the street food videos I’ve watched to all the chef John videos I’ve watched... I never thought those worlds would collide. It made me feel some type of way.
@@venomf0 I watch a lot of street food videos. Most of the best filmed ones are from Korea.
@@LeslieWho oh okay.
@@JoshJalil Chef John's done a several korean recipes before. It's not totally outside his wheelhouse
i ended up making these and i absolutely loved it. you introduced me to a flavor combination i had never tried before. PLEASE DO MORE STREET FOODS!!!
I've made this so many times, Chef John. It's a hit in my family.
I live in a town with a bunch of Korean markets I just made this and my lord this is the best breakfest creation ever made.
My grandma always used strawberry jam instead of sugar and this video made me miss her. I think I know what I’ll be having for dinner later.
That sounds even more delicious!
@@patriciamorgan6545 give it a try if you do make this recipe!
Yeah nice twist. I’m going with strawberry or rhubarb jam.
@@aflyingfishstick I definitely will!😋
thanks for the idea!!! i'm going to try it with strawberry jam then!!
You are 100% correct! It has all the components. Sweet, savory, crunchy, salty, buttery, it’s so satisfying and cabbage is so good! The secret ingredient is truly a top secret...don’t tell!
When I first watched this video I had some apprehension as it seemed like a crazy combo of ingredients BUT I just made it as Chef John demonstrated !!! Wow it's totally delicious !! I did add some sriracha to the ketchup/mayo combo but this is one breakfast/lunch sandwich I'm going to be making on a regular basis !!
did you really actually make it? I kind of don't believe you. Unless you say it was really good.
Geez Jess maybe you should read my whole post !! Yes I did and it was really delicious !! Perhaps you should work on your concentration skills and I missed the part where I'm supposed to care about what you believe or not !!

"we just ate a whole serving of vegetables without noticing" -- coated in sugar, ham, cheese, mayo and ketchup. haha :)
better than no veggies. sneak it in like v8
Not to mention a total of 3 tablespoons of butter!
noice
"A spoon full of sugar helps the vegetables go down..."
The nutritional facts are on allrecipes. 1 sandwich = 900+ calories and over 100% of your daily fat, cholesterol and sodium.
Worth.
구독한지 몇 년 째인데 여기서 이걸보다니 놀랍고 신기해요
그러니까요. 세상에
@@LauraChae 그러게요 ㅎㅎㅎ
세상에.. I was thinking the same
Hm, yes, well personally, I think * KOREAN SOUNDS *
Be honest here, did you stay up late watching endless Korean street toast videos on youtube? If not, you should as they are the most relaxing thing to watch at 2am when you have insomnia.
Had to check out Chef John after hearing him mentioned all over the place... and I can really see what all the fuss is about! Will be returning for sure!
Most crazy food combos are just that. Crazy. This one is crazy with a stroke of brilliance. Can't wait to try it.
I now need to ask my Korean wife of 23+ years why we have never had this. She has some ‘splaining to do.
😅😅😅
Ahahaha. Do you have children? I have memories eating this as a child only so I think it’s something mothers make for their children moreso than adults haha. (Kinda like Mac and cheese or grilled cheese sandwiches?) She made it for lunches when I was on elementary school a lot but once I went into middle school, I never got these unless I asked for it.
Or you could be inspired by the recipe and make it for lunch for the two of you....peas and lovage
🤣
Probably because she doesn't want you to get fat as hell. This thing has like 1500 calories, all from fat and carbs. Korea was relatively a poor country until the 90s so we sought out calorie dense food as much as possible at the lowest cost possible. This was one of the result as was the instant ramen and other flour based foods. Now that Korea is one of the richest countries in the world, food like this is actually contributing to an obesity problem. Enjoy it friend, but only like once a month. LOL.
I just made this where have you been my whole life delight.
WOW.
Hard to describe the magic of flavors and textures.
THANK YOU!!!
As a Korean, I remember eating this almost everyday for breakfast or lunch because my mom made them and I still love eating it to this day. It's definitely soul food for Koreans. I would say it's much better to use Japanese milk bread instead of American white bread. Trust me, the difference is phenomenal.
And where would I find such a bread? Don't remember seeing it in my local supermarket.

This is crazy. I’ve been watching tons of Korean street food videos recently and now you’re making it.
I can't even picture what this tastes like. Looks delicious though!
ham & cheese omelet with coleslaw, on a sandwich
I love this description!! 👏🏼🤭
How about picturing a ham and cheese and egg with cole slaw sandwich. Got the picture? Sheesh is it so hard to use your imagination?
Try it! 😋
I made one a few months ago. It was amazing. The sugar is the most important part
I've watched your videoes for so long just as entertainment, until I started realizing that these ARE recipes after all. This is the second recipe of yours I've tried in just as many days, and I have to say that this is a delicious sandwich. I'm happy you pressured me into doing the double egg version - I needed it!
If you want another channel with "edutainment" cooking, try Life of Boris. Very funny man, very tasty food.
Man these look so good. Korean street food is just something else. It looks so tasty and comforting to eat.
This makes sense if you compare the flavor profile to something like a monte cristo.
Yes!
I've been doing this with baloney and omelettes since I was a kid, but never thought anything special about it until I saw how popular it was in Korea and on youtube. Would love to try a legit one someday.
Wow spot on, even down to the interesting sugar topping.
We are, after all the Yakuza, of what we put in our bellies after booze-ups.
The Monte Cristo interestingly is available in virtually cafes in Korea along with Texas style toast topped with whipped cream and cherry tomatoes. I don’t understand the latter one. It’s not bad just from a different reference plane.
"And there is going to be less chance of burning it because I'm playing with it so much" I had the exact opposite experience...
well, note that Chef John plays with his for only a few minutes, instead of hours on end, right?
@@silpheedTandy And he does it gently too
@@silpheedTandy with butter
For a healthier option I think I would use less butter & mayo & sauce & drop the sugar since there is some in ketchup anyway.
@@cizia69 butter sure does contribute to the sensual pleasures of life, doesn't it?
love Chef John!
You should totally do series of street food from around the world.
YES! I'd love it if he'd make a video on Doner Kebabs. When I was in Berlin they were THE street food to try and boy were they the bomb!
Been watching your channel for a while now and this was the first recipe I've actually tried. End result delicious! An half was a perfect breakfast.
my parents used to add strawberry jam in mine when I was growing up!
That sounds really good!
Yes, sounds delicious. I would leave out the sugar and ketchup if using jam though.
I actually think I would prefer that to the sugar.
My mom would add jam and bacon lol. It was sooo goood!
Let’s see if you would let them do the same to you now😄🤔
You just gotta love Chef John. I watch these videos almost as much for his enthusiasm and humor as the food. 😀
YOUR VOICE OVERS ARE SO FUNNY AND UNIQUE AND WELL WRITTEN FOR EACH VIDEO OMG I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
I know he’s so lovable.
Yeeiiih!!! So happy you made a Korean street food dish! Please make more Korean food!
Nothing makes me happier than seeing a recipe by Chef John! Making 2020 a little less depressing

Just made this and finished it up moments ago. Simply amazing as are all of chef johns recipes
Hmmm interesting... a few weeks back when i had the flu and was feeling too sick to go outside for food-shopping i made something in this style, but i made a dobble decker with 3 slices of toast. And i just used what i found in the almost empty fridge: ham, tomatoe slices, sour pickle slices, a fried egg and a slice of melted cheese. Its always good to have some Toast-bread in the house! ❤🍞
Thank you! I'm addicted to watching Korean street food videos and they never explain exactly what's in it. lol
Amazing! I seem to have concocted this sandwich many times while intoxicated & never realised it was a Korean street toastie.
Just made this. oh my it was delicious !!! Thank You !!!
Chef John: cuts his sandwich into triangles. You sir, are a scholar and a gentleman.
Triangles are the only shape that every shape can be neatly cut into, there is no option but to cut into triangles!
Are you serious? What were you expecting, circles?
Glad your expense account always guarantees a good video spiced with wit and humor. I don’t have an expense account anymore so I’ll just have to break the budget and whip up this yummy treat!
I loved having this when I was stationed in Korea at Osan Air Base, usually after a few to many OB beers or Soju in downtown Songtan village...good times!!
Suggest it to Denny's? I would order that

As a Korean born and raised, I want to thank you! This is bringing back so many memories! Hello from So Cali!
Socal not so cali :)
Brought back culinary school vibes with julienning the carrots. I remember doing it over and over. Havent done it since then.
That sandwich actually looks really good.
I just saw a video of the toast being made in Korean then suddenly you're making it, that's awesome
Tried this one recently, just because it looked so unusual yet accessible. It’s scrumptious, and my husband loved it too, so it may become a regular. Thank you! 👍🏻
I just made this because of this video. Thanks to Chef John for ruining any other breakfast sandwich for me! :D
Chef John: Your kicthen skills and presentation are a joy to watch . Truly.
I saw this dish in another channel and it was pretty easy to make. This is the best egg veggie sandwich ever. It is one of my favorite dish now.
I just made this. Used strawberry preserves instead of sugar. It was really good! Crunchy, with a lot of different flavors going on. I would make it again! Thank you Chef John!
Tried it, loved it, did again the next day. Thanks Chef John!
I love how authoritatively Chef John slips that spatula underneath
You cannot show any fear before a spatula. It can sense fear.
Food senses fear is a famous Chef John quote!! 👏🏼
"Never let the food win"
Do not mess this up by using any bread that has any nutritional value... 😂
This is the best comment!. That is all.
I can deconfirm, whole wheat bread works fine.
chef John low key slaps with his subtle jokes. He's been doing this for years, and thats why I subscribed lol. Hes awesome and has taught me so many new recipes.
You could make pan de mie, which is delicious square everyday French white bread, and no one needs to know it's nutritious unless you tell them.
@@MarySanchez-qk3hp is it a pun?
Made this today after watching your video, and I have to say it was absolutely delicious, definitely something I'll be making again!
This dish has transformed my kitchen. I loved it so much i made it again the very next day. Thanks again!
KEWPIE MAYO KEWPIE MAYO KEWPIE MAYO
@TheDevineBeing well it's more that this is a korean dish, it calls for kewpie mayo. Putting hellmans on a korean sandwich is a sin.
@TheDevineBeing what are u on about m8
The way you explain and narrate.... I wanna make this for breakfast tomorrow!!! Thank you for the recipe 🙏
I just made this and as my wife would say, “it’s a winner” love your videos.
Loved this recipe. It was delicious! Your commentary during the recipe is as good as the recipe itself!
It’s basically a ham grilled cheese with coleslaw. Delicious.
Liz Lemon says: "Put potato chips on a sandwich!". I say put ALL side dishes on a sandwich!
Well the egg makes it far different
Jeff F It’s like a breakfast sandwich with coleslaw.
It's far more like an omelet than coleslaw lol.
I’m trying this for sure need something different to try during Pandemic
Haha 😂 This is 길거리 토스트. I can’t believe my favorite recipe channel covered this. Thank you! 🙏🏻
I agree do a whole street food series
Was not expecting you to make this but i guess I'll give it a try.
That is very authentic. Perfect Korean street toast. Making this at the weekend.
I made this for breakfast today. I had coleslaw mix on hand, which worked well. Sliced up a bit of onion too. As I commented before, this is definitely an after-party snack. Good for breakfast, too
I love making this! As a variation, Chef John, try BBQ sauce instead of the mayo/ketchup.
Yea I was gonna make this without the mayo and ketchup. Bbq sauce sounds much better
or okonomiyaki sauce!
@@bobf5360 this guy knows his shit
Do you think grated zucchini would work? I can’t cabbage.
@@lynnstlaurent6789 It's worth a try. Zucchini has a lot of water in it, though. You'd need to squeeze most of the water out of it before you cook it.
This looks absurdly good. One for the weekend after some cardio.
Omg I have always wanted to try this!! Thank you for making a video on this, Ive always wanted to try korean street food breakfast, and now I get to. Thanks Food Wishes!
This was fun to make, relatively easy and... Ridiculously good. Thank you!
I read "Korean" food - I click. I'm an easy person.
Forgive my lazy butt but I’m going to buy a bag of angel hair sliced coleslaw mix.
