Korean Cooking

This wonderful Korean cookbook brings the diverse flavors of Korean cuisine straight to your kitchen!

Flavorful and satisfying, Korean cuisine is a tantalizing balance of tastes and textures — fiery peppers are a counterpoint to mild rice, fragrant sesame oil adds a hint of sweetness to meat and vegetables, and pickled kimchi adds zest with its tanginess and crunch. and, best of all, Korean food emphasizes vegetables and grains, making it as healthy as it is delicious.

With Korean Cooking you'll soon be creating delectable, authentic dishes in your own kitchen. Simple recipes, step-by-step photographs, and a guide to Korean ingredients make it easy for even a beginning cook to prepare traditional favorites — from a nourishing tofu and vegetable casserole to mouth-watering barbecued beef bulgogi to fragrant noodle and rice dishes and the many varieties of kimchi. Korean Cooking also offers a range of irresistible appetizers and side dishes, without which no Korean meal would be complete.

Whether you hunger for zesty bean-noodle japchae, rice and vegetable bibimbap, or steamed beef spareribs (galbijjim), Korean Cooking will bring the warming and satisfying flavors of Korean food into your home.
