Navigating Histamine Levels in Korean Banchan Bowls
Korean banchan bowls offer a vibrant array of side dishes, but for those managing histamine intolerance, navigating these flavorful spreads can be challenging. Fermented ingredients like kimchi, soybean paste, and aged sauces often trigger reactions. The mm food app simplifies this process by instantly translating menus and analyzing dishes for high-histamine components.
How It Works
- Input Restrictions: Select 'Histamine Control' from dietary filters or add custom triggers.
- AI-Powered Analysis: Our technology scans menu items for fermented foods, aged proteins, and histamine-rich additives.
- Safe Recommendations: Receive highlighted options like:
- Fresh vegetable namul (spinach, bean sprouts)
- Mild soups without fermented pastes
- Grilled meats marinated in low-histamine sauces
Pro Tips for Banchan Lovers
- Avoid kimchi, doenjang jjigae, and myeolchi bokkeum (anchovies)
- Opt for sukju namul (bean sprouts) or musaengchae (radish salad)
- Request freshly prepared banchan to minimize fermentation time
