Peppers! I love shishito peppers grilled, stir-fried, pickled and like today, steamed with a crunch and spicy kick (today’s dish). Shishito peppers are mild, slightly sweet and are often found in Asian cooking, particularly Japanese and Korean cooking. I love having a spicy side dish (banchan) when ...

Bulgogi Kimchi Juk (Korean Porridge)
Korean porridge or “juk” is the perfect warm weather food to start off the changing of seasons. While juk is enjoyed all year round, I particularly crave it more in the cold seasons because the hearty warm bowl really warms my body up! There are so many varieties of juk - you can really add anything ...
Braised Soybeans (Kongjaban) from “Soo-Mi’s Side Dish”
Braised soybeans - referred to as kongjang ( 콩장) or kongjabang (콩자반) is a sweet and salty black soybean side dish. They are just a tad chewy to give it great texture. Traditionally, these are made with dry black soybeans and so while there is a waiting period while the beans soak, the cooking part ...
Korean Mushroom Rice

This is the perfect recipe to make when you have variations of mushrooms left in your fridge. The recipe calls for shiitake and oyster mushrooms but should be lovely ...

Two weekends ago, we went to the farmer’s market for some last summer fruit and vegetables. Blueberries were nearly dying but still yet alive and we found a stand selling super plump looking ...
Korean Rice Egg Roll
Do you ever get into a packed-lunch rut? Sandwiches everyday? I’ve made my Inkigayo sandwich about 3x now and I think he’s maybe bored of bread. My husband claims that he does not. (I get free lunch at work so don’t have this issue. ) But I pack my husband’s lunch and I get tired of making ...
Cheddar Cheese and Scallion Scone
One day, I went to the grocery store with the intention to make the most scrumptious grilled cheese. I came home with a lot of different cheeses and we ended up going out for lunch because grocery shopping is tiring and it was too hot to turn on the stove or oven. Fast forward a few weeks, my cheese ...
