jiminMemberWe’re just the opposite – I’m Korean and my husband is not. You still, using Maangchi’s recipes must impress your mother in law quite a bit.
Up until I discovered Maangchi’s methods to Korean cooking, trying to learn from my own mother was just exasperating. But don’t you find that after a while of cooking, you learn to measure using taste just like our mothers do?
All the best, it sounds like you have a very lovely family.

My mom is all about loving my kids with her korean cooking.
My son has a gluten sensitivity and had suffered from really serious eczema as a result. Whole Foods here where I am in Oakville, Ontario has a concierge service that really helped my mom understand how to help Brennan and help my mom cook modifying and introducing her to other ways to use gluten free ingredients. Take your mother in law shopping. Show her what she needs to know to cook for your daughter. She might surprise you.
Good luck and happy cooking.

Hello Miren, I too was moved by your short but very impactful introduction. I saw this post a while back and thought that you might find the information useful.
All the best and be well.

jiminMemberMe to Kumaxx, I agree. Try new ingredients and experiment, put gochugaru on something new, mix is with mayonnaise if that’s what entices the inner chef. I applaud that. Yes, Yes, Yes, you are right, do not sell it as authentic.
Stay true to the cuisine, give it respect, show it off globally and do it honestly.
jiminMemberThe worst intrepretation(use this word very loosely) Korean restaurant in the world. For those who think otherwise need to experience true Korean food, or need a new palate.
jiminMemberMother of the Year!!!
jiminMemberOne can only find humour in the article. Who ever said Korean cuisine was such a secret?
It’s for all to enjoy. For those who want to assist in bringing this delicious food to the masses, I beg you to do it properly. As a Korean I’m not even offended by those who aren’t Korean but have the courage and the desire to share their version of what they believe Korean cuisine to be. Thank God for Maangchi to help demystify the process. My shame and outrage comes from bad restaurants like “The Korean Grill House” in Toronto, or from bad chefs like Bobby Flay that through his fame bastardize the authenticity of something so representative of Korean cuisine like kimchi is.
Just my opinion. Kimchi for the Masses!!!!
jiminMemberYes please Maangchi. Pls post soon. Reading this recipe request brought such a fond memory and made my mouth water. It is such a great winter stew. It makes me think of my halmuni. I can envision being a teenager again and sitting at her table while she watched me eat her delicious biji. I can’t wait to try and recreate it with your inspiration.
