  1. Pajeon (Green onion pancake)

    Ever since I blogged about a pancake I made with wild green onions I picked in Central Park, many people expressed interest in the recipe through my blog, email, and Facebook page. So I decided to take another field trip to pick more wild green onions and mugwort to make video recipes with the ingredients. […]

  2. Emergency Kimchi (Yangbaechu-kimchi)

    Pine nut porridge (Jatjuk)

    Beautifully white, mild in taste, warm and satisfying, I’ve never seen anybody who doesn’t like pine nut porridge (jatjuk). The recipe is also very simple, made with just a few ingredients, and it’s super-nutritious!

How can you possibly make it edible? It will never get softer by soaking in cold water for only 30 minutes. You’ll have to soak it overnight!
