Oh! If you ever hold a cooking class in LA my boyfriend and I would love to come! Pleasepleaseplease hold one! I would love to learn how to make a traditional Korean dinner that I could serve at a dinner party some time to impress my family and friends (with due credit of course!)

I love spicy food and my boyfriend likes to try new dishes but he can’t eat a lot of very hot ingredients, so maybe something customizable? I will check back to see if there is anything in my neck of the woods. :) I love your videos, the instruction is fun and easy to understand. I would love to come to a class!

Your message reminds me of my own experience! When I visited Korea last year, the food I wanted to try the first was street vendor foods. Thank you for your suggestion! I will keep it in mind!

Hi Maangchi, In a future class I might suggest some of the street vendor type foods. I often times enjoyed picking up some kimpap or tteokbokki from street vendors. Kimpap is fun and easy to make, and the ingredients to include are easily customizable (?) to the likes or dislikes of your family or guests. I would also incorporate into your classes how to organize your time while cooking various dishes for a meal or dinner party. Such as how to prepare all the vegetables a cook will need ahead of time and how long to soak/cook/prepare things like kosari or dangmyun noodles for various dishes and still have everything ready on time for presentation. Just my thoughts as I still need help with that kind of thing especially now that I am venturing into other dishes I never learned to prepare while I was in Korea.

Maangchi.. I am an American born Korean and ashamed to say that I did not know how to cook korean. I am a mother of 3 and my husband is 100% Korean and eats mostly korean dishes. I learn alot of dishes from you and my husband loves it. However, I was always curious… What kind of knife do you use. it looks so easy and cuts so well… could you tell me where you got the knife?

I would be interested, but since attending more than one class would be hard for me, I would love to get in one class a couple dishes demonstrated. If you could fit in one class three dishes that a typical korean meal would include… a couple of banchan and a main soup/stew dish would be great!
