Patricia posted the above photo on the Korean Food Community on G+. As soon as I saw it I got a flood of good memories. When I lived in Korea, I used to go to a Korean restaurant that would create traditional table settings like this, with rice and 30 side dishes! This kind of […]
I’d like to share this exciting story with all of you. Have you ever cooked a huge batch of sweet and crispy Korean fried chicken (dakgangjeong) for a party?
