I have been exploring for a bit for any high-quality articles or blog posts on this sort of area . Exploring in Yahoo I finally stumbled upon this web site. Reading this info So i¡¦m happy to convey that I have a very excellent uncanny feeling I came upon exactly what I needed. I such a lot indubitably will make certain to do not fail to remember this site and provides it a look regularly.
Hi, I really LOVE Mul-kimchi; and I have bought ones from the store that tasted great; but the ones I make; is kind of like drinking vinegar, there’s no other taste to it. What am I doing wrong, and can you do one so I can try? Thanks!
Hi Miya,
I’m an edit assistant at Kimchi Chronicles, and we’re interested in featuring one of your recipes.
Please email me if you’d like to get in touch.
Best,

Hi
May someone help me to find a training centre in Seoul teaching korean Sweets? i would appreciate it
Tnx
I am an avid baker who just moved to Seoul. Is there a Korean version of bread flour I can find at my local market? I’ve hunted around and can’t figure out which of the local flours would be high in gluten.
Thank you.

Hi Miya,
I love korean food. When I was in Seoul, I had some cold noodles in a soy bean broth (it was white, so it was not a miso broth).
Do you know the name of it?
I love your site. I have been to South Korea several times and the food is so wonderful. I try to cook Korean often. Your site really makes it simple. Thanks and please continue.
I’m basically new to Korean cooking… I have noticed that some Red Pepper base brands are pretty much all natural ingredients and some have all kinds of ingredients listed that no one can pronounce… I am looking for a good paste that is MILD (I can’t eat many hot foods anymore) Can anyone suggest a good brand for me? And where to find it?? Thank-you
I was fortunate enough to travel from the US to Korea. I met up with friends from England who used to live there and with their local friends. Seoul was nice, but I had a much better understanding of the culture when I left the area with the most Americans. I must say the food and eating experience was a highlight. I do not want to insult the native language with my phonetic spelling, but the Hot Kimche soups, samgypsal, biminbap, Hens stuffed with rice, chessnuts and ginger root, and at last the soju were standouts. I am a cook and so glad that I left with many cookbooks in hand. There is only one close to authentic korean restaurant by me and it is 1 1/2 hours away from my home. I thank you for your beautiful pictures and detailed instructions. I have been brave enough to try to recreate my favorites here. I even grow Korean sesame here very successfully and give plants to friends. I brought back the chopsticks, stone bowls, etc and do my best to recreate the meals. It is not just food, but an experience to share meals with people there. Much more social and a bonding experience then here. Your site is inspiring and nostalgic. Thank you for the time you put into it.

Hi!
I recently tried some Korean food and immediately felt in love with it! I went to Asa restaurant in London (in China town to be precisely) and order some kind of noodles, I think it’s Udon noodles! They have some kind of chili paste for anyone to add into the dish if you prefer it to be spicy! It’s like ketchup for you to eat with fries or fried chicken! Can you lease tell me the name of that paste sauce? Thank you very much!
hello that must be yangnyum gochujang, it´s basic gichu jang with garlic, saseme oil, soring onion, little bit of sugar.. that goes with rice as well, enjoy..
I have had incredible Korean food in London. A little upscale compared to some is Myung Ga. It is 1 Kingly Street, London W1. My second favorite, which is more like a true restaurant in Korea is when you exit the Tottenham court tube station by center point.
Hi,
I have a recipe for Korean steamed rib which I like to cook. But there is just one problem, one of the ingredients is phygo mushrooms and I have no idea what it is exactly and if there are any substitutes for it. I also tried to google it…without success!
Does anybody know what other mushrooms I could use instead?
Thanks a lot
that name is pyogo you can buy in chiness shop that coming in pack dried you can suck in water over night and use it,, in japaness they say shitaki mushroom brown on top and white inside.
I don´t know what you making but steamed rib will be galbizzim?? steamed rib in sweet soy sauce??? if so, mushroom is not that important,, so don´t worry. good luck!!!

Hi,
I lived and worked in ROK in 2006 as an English teacher. It was a wonderful experience for me and some of the most enduring memories I have is a persistent longing for some of my favourite Korean dishes. I live in Dublin in Ireland and we have some very good Korean restaurants in the city and many shops which sell all types of ingredients from around the world so I have been able to recreate some of my favourite Korean dishes at home with the help of your website, thank you
.
However, I have been unable to find a recipe for a particular type of Korean Shabu-shabu dish me and my friends used to love when we went out to eat. I lived in Ilsan in Jeong-bal-san and my favoutie shabu-shabu restaurant was upstairs on the second floor of the huge shopping street called ‘la Festa’. The restaurant was fantastic, everybody had to take off their shoes and sit Korean style at their table. The staff were very friendly and helpful to us foreigners who only knew a few Korean words. My favourite was the beef shabu-shabu; paper thin slices of beef cooked with white straw mushrooms, kimchi and spicy sauce. There was a green vegetable too but I never found out the correct name. After we ate the meat and vegetables the server would add udon noodles to the soup and extra water if required. All this food was followed by even more delicious egg fried rice which was expertly cooked for us by the staff at our table. We visited this restaurant many times and always left it with very full happy tummies
Could you post a similar recipe for this spicy shabu-shabu hotpot on your website with a list of ingredients so I can try it myself in Ireland?
Best wishes,
Dearbhla
I do love the way you have framed this particular difficulty and it really does present us some fodder for consideration. On the other hand, through what I have experienced, I just hope when the reviews stack on that individuals stay on point and not get started upon a tirade regarding the news of the day. All the same, thank you for this excellent point and whilst I do not necessarily go along with the idea in totality, I respect your standpoint.
HI!
I made the Korean Chicken wing recipe and it was FABULOUS! I am an ESL teacher who has worked in Korea and I miss it and the food very much. I visit our local Korean restaurant as often as possible to hold me over until I get back to Korea.. Thanks for creating this blog–I LOVE IT!

I want to purchase some STRAWBERRY RICE CAKES(korean), but cannot find a place on line to order them! Every since i saw them being included in the film “Fist of Fury”, I’ve always wanted to try them! I want the sweet ones!
Can someone please assist me?

When I was in Seoul recently , one of our friends brought us to this place, he said serves the best GalbiJim. Its like a hot pot but no soup. In it is the best beef and one of the condiments interestingly is Ddeokbokki. I think it was an interesting way to serve Ddeokbokki apart from cooking with the red sauce we usually know. When I came back to Singapore, I eagerly went to Korean restaurants and order up the same thing, but to my disappointment, the GalbiJim here cannot hold a candle to what I have eaten that night in Seoul, what’s more, no where can I find Ddeokbokki in the dish. Is it a common condiment to put in GalbiJim? Do you have a similar receipe to share?
our food is basically to share, there are so many big dishes to share ,, I dón´t know what first..and if you went to korea don´t expect anything will be the same,, coz depends on country there is law that restaurant can use candle etc coz fire issue.. stupid,,
