My cookbooks
Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking. my first book has all the recipes for all the essential Korean pastes and sauces, but my second book Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking has more recipes.

I am attempting to make persimmon vinegar from a recipe off the Internet. I have been doing alot of shopping at a Korean super market,and bought some persimmon vinegar that I liked very much. I used the vinegar in a home made salad dressing it was good. A woman in the store suggested I buy small black soy beans(dried) and soak them in the persimmon vinegar for 1 week. Then she said eating 1 T, 3 times a day was really good for digestion. My beans are soaking now. I am American. Is this something common in other cultures? I have never heard of it.

Hi there Maangchi, I am Princess, an avid fan of you. I am married to a Korean and have been staying here in Korea for few months. I wonder if you could advice me about korean cooking.
Ahh. I am a Filipina. In the Philippines we usually use vinegar in preparing our food. How about here? How often do you use vinegar? Does everybody like it?
Please send me a reply on my email.
