Today, tomatoes have become a crucial agricultural product with an annual global production exceeding 100 million tons. In K-food, new recipes using tomatoes in dishes like kimchi and bibimbap are gaining popularity. Especially among the MZ generation, tomato-based fusion cuisine is trending on social media.
