Hi all – I found this site about 3 weeks ago. Since then I have cooked as many recipes from here as I can fit in! My whole family is now eating Korean whether they want to or not because I always have so many left overs.
I live in Wellington (the capital of New Zealand) and have been a foodie in general for some time (with my interest being mostly French and modern British cuisine). Korean food is the first food I have cooked that I feel truly satisfied with my efforts.
I run a website (listverse.com) and work from home. I have a cat (Dexter), dog (Bruno), two finches (Ugolino and Hildegard), and lots of fish (mostly unnamed).
I love to spend all day preparing and cooking – my most recent Korean BBQ took me from 10 in the morning until 8 at night – I made 7 side dishes and pork belly BBQ. I loved every minute of it. I have bought the complete series of the Grand Chef and am now watching a few episodes a night. It is the first Korean Drama I have seen and it is well worth the watch if you haven’t seen it.
I hope to cook every recipe here.
If you want to see some of my Korean cooking photos you can find them on Flickr here. Some of my non-Korean food photos are here.

Hi Jamie,
You have some great pictures posted on your Flickr, you must be a great cook!
I know how you feel when you say korean cuisine is the first food that truly satisfies the effort.
Before i always thought that korean cooking was very difficult and elusive.
But, with maangchi it’s made very accessible and easy.
Good luck cooking every recipe here!
