This stew almost killed my cooking spree when I first started getting into the kitchen. My mom’s soondubu and the Korean restaurant soondubu’s taste very different from each other. But, the recipes I tried to make came nothing close to either! Many recipes use Kimchi to enhance (and cheat) ...
Instant Pot Korean Cheese Pork Ribs featuring Baek Jong Won
This recipe reminded me how much easier the Instant Pot can make my life! I spent all weekend around the kitchen because DrJuh was studying (last minute) for the boards which meant I tested out a bunch of recipes. Tired on a Sunday night, I remembered the random pork ribs and our Instant ...
Baek Jong Won – Korean Chili Shrimp Box
I don’t usually buy meats frozen and try to buy them fresh, meaning I’m going to the grocery store more often than I’d like. But, I do almost always stock up on frozen raw shrimp (by the bulk from Costco!). It is also one of the few things I can buy at Costco for our small family of two. The ...
Spicy Chicken Bulgogi
Cooking for two can be hard when I have to buy pounds of chicken or beef at one-time. Then, I’m stuck in the “now what” phase with leftover ingredients. And that’s how I landed here, after making Youn’s Kitchen Boneless Fried Kitchen. This chicken bulgogi is just slightly spicy, salty and sweet. The ...
Kang’s Kitchen Omurice (Omelette Rice)
Omurice is a fried rice often sauced in a ketchup base and topped with a fluffy egg. It's a simple fusion dish that combines Asian flavors with a Western twist. When I was a kid, my mom used to make me fried rice topped with a egg and a ketchup smiley face or heart decorated on the egg. Today’s ...

Budae Jjigae (Korean Army Stew)
Budae Jjigae is a super popular Korean “jeon gol” (hot pot). A huge pot of sizzling spicy stew is usually shared amongst 2, 4 or even more people (the more the merrier, and the bigger the pot!). I don’t think my mom grew up eating this dish so she didn’t make it for us at home. The first few times I ...
Osam Bulgogi from Soo-Mi’s Side Dishes (Korean Spicy Stir-Fried Squid and Pork)
Having recently traveled to DC and then NYC, coming back home - my dinners have felt uninspired. I’ve gotten used to a week of eating out or getting dinner served by my parents that I don’t know what to make or eat (nor do I have the energy). We ordered BBQ chicken twice - yay for ubereats and ...
Baek Jong Won spicy braised tofu with pork (dubu jorim)
There are days when I don’t crave any meat but these types of days never seem to come for my husband. Baek Jong Won’s spicy braised tofu with added pork is a perfect solution for these family polarizing days. No fights at home about food! (We don’t actually fight because we’re too nice about it but ...
