My friend visiting me from Toronto loves spicy Korean food, so I made this dish along with other side dishes. You can use my “stir fried squid side dish” recipe to make this. I used baby octopus instead of squid.
This Rosario’s place, located in lower east side, serves quite a good pizza. I’m not a big fan of pizza, but since I tasted this pizza last winter when I came to New York to travel, it has been my favorite pizza place. A week ago, I visited there and ordered this spinach pizza. And […]
I made some changes to my website this week. I wanted to be able to add more categories easily, and so I moved everything from Blogger to WordPress. I also started a new kitchenware section and maybe I will add more sections now that it is easier to do. I also divided the blog section […]

I met my blog readers on Saturday afternoon, July 26. All eight members got together and had a great picnic. I was surprised that they recognized my face quickly. “Hey, Maangchi!” that’s the first sentence when they saw me. I took off my sunglasses to show my face so that they could find me easily. […]

My reader Ms. Sandy sent me this photo to ask me what it is.When I saw that, it reminded me of my elementary school days. I think some of you may remember this street food, too.I’m quoting Ms. Sandy’s email and my answer here with the photo. Sandy says: “Can you help me with the […]

I’m posting this email that I received today after confirming she is ok about it. Her email made me happy all this afternoon because I see her beautiful mind over her Korean husband. Hi Maangchi!

Which to get? Both are best sellers and either one is a good choice if you want to learn Korean home cooking.
