Grilled Flanken Style Korean Short Ribs (Galbi or Kalbi) by John SpottiswoodI adapted this recipe from one in Bon Appetit and another from Chef John (foodwishes.blogspot.com). Chef John recommended blending an asian pear into the marinade to help tenderize the meat. I didn't have an asian pear, so I substituted a fuji apple and reduced the sugar slightly. I thought the resulting marinade, and ribs, were… |

Grilled Sweet Potatoes with Sesame Sauce by John SpottiswoodThis is a delicious healthy grilled side or main dish. In Korea, this is commonly served by street vendors, especially during the bitter winter. I enjoy it just as much during the summer. In Korea they dip the sweet potato into the sauce. I typically just split the sweet potato like a regular baked potato, and spoon the sauce over… |

Korean potato side dish by John SpottiswoodI always love these sweet and salty braised potatoes when they are served along with kimchi and various other side dishes at korean restaurants. I've always wanted to make them, and grilling Galbi gave me the perfect opportunity. I started with a recipe from maangchi.com and substituted a mix of sugar and mirin for the corn syrup… |

Spicy Asian Grilled Pork Chops by John SpottiswoodThis is an old favorite that I've made since my days living in Chicago. We lived near the main Korean part of town (near Lawrence I think) and frequently ate Bulgogi. One day I bought some boneless pork chops and tried to create my own marinade. This one is close. I do it somewhat by taste, and you can play with the quantities a… |

Jang Jorim (Soy Beef Strips) w Hard Boiled Eggs by jason kimToday we made one of my favorite meat side dishes called jang jorim, which is basically strips of beef (usually made from brisket) that has been boiled in soy sauce and other ingredients. It is quite salty to be eaten alone, but it is a great complement with rice and soup dishes. The peculiar aspect of this dish is the addition of… |

Korean Dak Juk (Chicken Porridge) by jason kimThough I have tried to avoid getting too personal on the blog, I must admit that this recipe has a bitter-sweet story behind it [sigh]. We are still experiencing record-breaking heat here in the Midwest (100+ weather!), and this is supposed to be the last day of the heat wave according recent weather experts. For some reason, the… |

We love the spiciness of the dish but always try to make it complete by ......full story and recipe at… |

Shrimp Udon w Fish Cakes & Poached Egg by jason kimUdon, (or udong as most Koreans say) is a great noodle dish that can be enjoyed morning, day, or night. It is a popular dish in both Korea and Japan (where it originated), and you can find this tasty, instant version in most Asian grocers. When we get tired of the usual ramen variety, we like to change things up with udon noodles… |
