Cook Korean!: A Comic Book with Recipes | Robin Ha

pick

I love API food and am always looking to try new things. This book is very similar to ‘Let‘s Cook Ramen‘, and ‘Noodles, Rice, and Everything Spice‘. Full of colorful and cute illustrations, this book is a guide to basic Korean cooking with a little humor and history sprinkled in. It has me wanting some! Shown: There is a local Korean Corndog truck I discovered last year, and I love it. Corn dogs (half & half style, with: ramen, sriracha, ⬇️

JenniferEgnor Elote, and hot Cheeto. It‘s weird, and it‘s wonderful! 2mo

TheBookHippie Oh this looks good. 2mo

JenniferEgnor @TheBookHippie highly recommend if your nutrition will allow for it. It‘s a nice treat once in a while! The book doesn‘t mention these, but they‘re a fun street food that‘s part of Korean Fusion. Maybe there are some near you! If not, there‘s YouTube and tons of cooking blogs so you can try them out at home! 2mo

TheBookHippie @JenniferEgnor I don‘t eat processed food real often. Otherwise no restrictions. 2mo

TheBookHippie @JenniferEgnor we stay in Koreatown when visiting LA purely for the food 🤣 2mo

wildwoodreads I‘m seeing this at 8:00 a.m. and now I desperately need a Korean corndog 😂😂😂 (edited) 2mo

JenniferEgnor @TheBookHippie same…we‘re pretty strict with what we eat, so these are a treat once in a while! 2mo

Bee-Bim Bop! | Linda Sue Park

This book can be used to introduce children to cultural diversity through poetry. It‘s a great way to explore rhythm and repetition in writing, and can be paired with a discussion on the importance of family traditions and different cultural practices. Teachers can also have students write poems about their own family traditions.

"Bee-bim Bop!" is a joyful, rhythmic poem about a Korean family preparing a traditional meal together. The poem captures the excitement and energy of cooking, while also introducing readers to aspects of Korean culture. The catchy, repetitive lines create a fun reading experience for children.

Cook Korean!: A Comic Book with Recipes | Robin Ha

I can't eat spicy foods so this was mostly food porn for me ☹️ though there are a few recipes I could try. It's a fun, colorful read in any case, with interesting tidbits about Korean culinary history and society.

The memoir segments are moving, the recipe headnotes informative & the photography gorgeous; a cookbook worth reading, even though I didn‘t try any of the recipes. Vegan versions of classic dishes like bulgogi & galbi are possible, although complex & time-consuming. Making Maple-Roasted Corn Tea involves roasting kernels, cobs & cornsilk plus many more steps, then serving with sliced lemons & jalapeños. I‘ll stick with roasted barley tea.

5feet.of.fury Oooh I follow her on insta and I love her stories and the dishes always look amazing. 4y

Lindy @5feet.of.fury Yes, they do look great. Since reading her cookbook, I‘ve been following her YouTube channel. 4y

DrexEdit I make a mean kimchee from a recipe my half-Korean cousin gave me. It's not vegan though, surprisingly! 4y

Lindy @DrexEdit I usually make my own kimchi because it‘s hard to find it prepared without either fish or shrimp or both. 🥬 4y

DrexEdit @Lindy definitely! This recipe my cousin had was the full-on all-day kimchi making deal. It's a lot of fun to make it the slow way, if you have the time. I love that kimchi is so adaptable to time and ingredients too!

Lindy @DrexEdit I find that it doesn‘t take much hands-on time, just tossing the salted cabbage every half hour until there‘s enough liquid released, then mixing in the seasoning and then packing it tightly in a jar. Naturally fermented pickles (all kinds) are so easy and so delicious. I‘m surprised more people don‘t make them. 4y

DrexEdit @Lindy I got into pickles during lockdown. Everyone else was baking bread and I learned how to make pickled cauliflower with carrots and red peppers and onions and tumeric. Yum! 😋🙂👍 4y

Lindy @DrexEdit Those pickles sound yummy! 4y
