    Hey, I just discovered this blog and am definitely going to start using it starting with some miyeok guk for my husband’s birthday this weekend. He’s Korean (I’m white), but I love most Korean food and make several Korean dishes. But I have a question that I don’t know if you’d be able to help me with, can you think of any Korean dishes that travel well and keep (in a cooler for several days)? We are traveling with my parents-in-law and they want us to bring some food so we don’t have to eat out all the time, but they really prefer Korean food. Help!!

    I love Korean food and have been for many years, on my last visit we went to a very Korean restaurant where I had something called “NAZOGI” I tried to find a recipe online but didn’t find even the slightest clue as to this chicken dish is being made , any ideas on how the dish is prepared I remember it contained sesame and red pepper, the chicken breast pieces were fried ,, I really appreciate help , cheers Philip

    안녕하세요~ Thank you so much for the wonderful recipes on your website. My fiancee and I were living in Korea the past year and we really fell in love with Korean food. Now we are trying to make some things at home for our family, and thanks to your recipes, it is so easy! Thanks again!

    I am addicted to things made with glutinous rice! But I’ve noticed on food packaging that it’s super high in calories. How do you Korean gals stay so thin?!

    Hi there!,
    I recently brought two Korean stuffed pancake premix box but the instructions are in Korean and I am not Korean but loves the foods!! One box is the hoddeok and the other I can not find the pancake name. The picture on the box is a round bread color like with sesame seed and it is not fry but bakes in the oven. I’m sorry that’s all that I can tell u about it, I hope you can help me make it. It’s by samyang products.

    I was in South Korea 83-85 near kunsan Air force base and had many meals in A town a little military compound near Kunsan. I had a meal that I remember being called (non ja won su) the best I can do. It looked like a meatball dish with several vegetables served with a light sauce or gravy. I am not sure it may have been a Chinese meal also. I just miss it to death and cant find it. Saw your site and thought I might ask. Thanks for your time.

    안녕하세요. 제가 아는 미국분이 한국식당에서 오징어채볶음을 먹어보고 계속 영어 레시피를 묻는 통에 인터넷을 검색하다가 우연히 들어오게 됐어요^^ 좋은 레시피가 많네요. 저같이 한식에 꽝인 사람은 외국친구들이 레시피를 물어오면 너무 당황스러운데 이제 걱정할 필요없이 이곳을 소개 해주면 되겠어요. 감사합니다^^

      All rice cookers I have used work pretty much the same way–If there is a cup included for measuring, it usually holds 750ml–if you dont have a cup you can use that amount for each “CUP”-for 3 “cups” put that much rice in pot ,wash it till water runs clear or nearly clear. Then-WITH THE WET RICE IN THE POT–add water to the 3 mark on the side of the pot(you are measuring rice AND water) There is usually a start button which will turn itself to a “warm ” position when the rice is done which will keep it long for a long time. Usually it is suggested to stir the rice only one time, when it has started to boil ,but BEFORE there is no water on top.

    Hi! I am new to your website and I discovered a lot of yummy looking food! I’m just suggesting that you should post videos of you cooking the recipes so people can visually see how you cook it and get a better understanding if they don’t understand something. That would help a lot! Thank you! :)

    Hello,
    Your blog is great. When I was very young, my best friend was korean. There was a dish that they ate with every meal. It was some type of red sauce that they put on top of a lettuce and rice roll. I have tried several recipes that are slightly similar, but none have really come close. I believe it’s called Ssamjang, but not sure. I tried a recipe that I had found on the internet for this, but it seemed to be too sweet. Would you have any recipes or know where I could find one for this sauce or even if this is what the sauce is called? I appreciate any feedback at all.

    Thanks!
    Stacy

    I am a second generation Korean-American and I am in love with your blog. Thank you so much ^^ and please keep adding ‘American-style’ measurements. A pinch of this, and a dab of that is not accurate, especially because I have long, slim fingers. I never get enough of any seasoning on my first try! Luckily, though, I found your blog ^^ Again, thanks!

    I just really need to say, thank you so much for this blog ~ ! I am your typical american girl, and my boyfriend is 100% Korean and has been away from home for 4 years. I really wanted to learn to make him the food his mother made for him while he was in Korea, but I could only ever find recipes written by non-korean people ~ ! So I didn’t trust them ! But, I’ve made a few of these dishes and he absolutely loves them ~ and loves me ! So thankyouuu sooo much ♥

    I am from Hawaii and recently moved to Maryland. I grew up with Korean food and your recipes look so easy to make! Korean restaurants can be expensive so I will try to make some of your recipes.

    Thank you and keep up the good work!

    Hi, I love your blog :)

    I wanted to know about serving sizes though. If I want to make a dish for lets say 6 people but your recipe is for 2, do I just triple all the ingredients?

    Thank you!

    OMG! Thank you so much for this blog!
    I mean, I’ve been loooking for Korean recipes like crazy on the Internet and yours are so easy to follow that even when I’m a rather clumsy cook, I think I’ll be able to follow your instructions.

    I’m Mexican and I’m dating a Korean guy. Moreover, I just love Korean cuisine! so I’ll start making a few recipes ^^, Hope everythings turns out right haha.

    PS. I couldn’t believed you actually made floured tortillas :) It’s a little difficult you know?, When I made them for the first time it didn’t taste as they supposed to hahaha

    I lived in Korean for 5 years and now been living in the states for 3 years. I have been looking everywhere for the recipes for the side dishes I cant figure out ( from the taste ). The 1st one is, made up of cole slaw without the american style sauce, its a green-clearish color,made with wasabi sauce. The second goes along with the 3rd, both are made with a mayonaise type dressing/sauce. The macaroni is mixed with this sauce and the other dish is corn also mixed with this sauce. I can tell you where to go in korea to get these but I can not find them on the internet anywhere! Do you have any idea what I’m talking about?

    Your recipes are really helpful for me because I can now prepare more delicious recipes for my husband. I love Korean Corn Dogs especially the ones with fries on it but I still have to travel to Dongdaemun or Myeongdong in order to satisfy my cravings. As much as possible I wanted to learn how to prepare them. Is it possible for me to request that recipe? Thank you so much! Gamsahamnida ^^

    THANK YOU FOR THIS BLOG!!!! I’ve been meaning to cook Korean dishes for my roomate and suitemates, but asking my mom and grandma never really helped…they can’t give me EXACT measurements! (You know how Korean “ah-joom-mahs” are all about the experience and “feel”…Hehe.) Although there are other websites for Korean recipes, I’m in love with your blog. Thank you so much, and hope to see more recipes!!! :-)
