Hello everybody!

Recently CJ Foods contacted me and offered to send me some Korean ingredients as a way of saying “thank you” for spreading Korean culture and cuisine. It was very kind of them to offer, but after talking to them some more, we decided it would be more fun to set up this giveaway for my readers. This is CJ’s way of encouraging you to cook Korean food, because they know that not everyone can find Korean ingredients easily.

So, leave a comment on this post, and you’ll be entered to win a Korean cooking startup kit from CJ.

Please leave only one comment below, and then there will be 20 winners chosen at random by random.org. This contest is open to anyone in the world. Wherever you live, if you win then CJ will deliver this startup kit to your house.

The contest will close at midnight (New York time), December 15th and I’ll contact the winners through email. The winners need to answer me in 5 days, and if anyone doesn’t answer in time I’ll have to pick the next winner. So please, when you register for my website to leave a comment, make sure you use a current email! And be sure to check your email around that time!

The other cool thing about this startup kit is that a lot of the products in it are from CJ’s new Bibigo brand, which you’ll soon be able to buy outside of Korean grocery stores in the USA. I asked CJ about this, and they said Bibigo is just a new brand name for their Haechandle brand, which I have been using for decades and you may have seen in my ingredients section.

So, good luck to you! I hope you win!

Update Dec 23, 2011 – The contest is now closed, and the winners have been announced. Thank you for entering!

    This is fantastic. I watched so many of your videos but never had a chance to cook the dishes. I actually used the videos as a guide so I would know what to order when going out. Good luck everyone!

    Thank You for the recipes, the videos, and the inspiration! Korean food brings back so many good memories I have from my childhood. I can only hope to duplicate them now that I have a family to cook for.

    There is only one Asian Outlet in town but it’s too small to carry any of the ingredients I need to make the Korean food I yearn for so much~!

    Thank you for running this website! Because of you, we have been able to teach our daughter the smells and tastes of her heritage. Since she arrived at four months from Seoul, we have tried to keep her connected to Korea. She loves watching you as she learns the recipes. She calls you “Imo” :) Much love from Idaho!
