So-wrong-yet-so-right-Green Sauce

June 8, 2015

Once I took my dusty food processor out for a ride, it was like a game changer. Why didn’t I use it more often before? You can literally blend everything into magical ‘sauce’! Here, you guys, is a recipe that will change your ‘sauce making’ routine. A can tuna, caper and anchovies. I know. But…

Homemade Chicken Jerky

February 3, 2014

I am a carb whore. Seriously I love carb. Bread, cake, rice, pastry, noodle….any kind….I don’t discriminate. I remember when I was a kid, my grandma and mom worried because I literally  lived off of asian-pastry. Knowing that, whenever I feel like I need to shed a few pounds, I go on low carb for…

Roasted Red Pepper Mango Salsa

October 7, 2013

When I was in a culinary school, I wanted to do the internship at this restaurant I loved. So I made this pretty little resume, and showed up at the restaurant. I see the open kitchen filled with men, I mean tall men. And I am 5.1 feet tall. Asian girl. (5.3 on a good day.) Intimated….Come…

Cauliflower-Crust Pizza

June 19, 2012

I met my friend, Alisa in my first year of culinary program. She was studying to be a dietitian and needed to take basic culinary classes. When I walked into the classroom (kitchen, in this case) I spotted her and I put down my knife kit right next to her. I was one of the…

Homemade Yogurt

April 22, 2012

When I was home in Korea, I ate Kimchee in almost every meal so I never had to worry about getting enough probiotics. But now I’m here in the ‘western’ world….where probiotics come in pills and supplements, I have to make sure I get enough of them. And I am telling you, once you make…

Sake & Food Pairing

March 5, 2012

Besides wine, Sake is my favorite drink (adult beverage, I meant).  So when SakeOne (One of very few American sake makers. I think there are only 4…) contacted me, I was thrilled. They were going to send me a box of their premuim sake. Heck yeah! I will trade in food for sake anytime! And…

Sweet & Salty Kale Chips

October 13, 2011

My grandma used to make my favorite snack with kelp. She would lightly fry kelp(we had real thick one in Korea) and while it’s hot, she puts salt and sugar. Aghhh I miss home cooked korean snack. With ever popular kale, I made my version of it. Oven roasted instead of frying, and with some…
