This book combines my first two cookbooks in one volume. It's 45 recipes from my YouTube videos and website, plus pictures of the ingredients you need so you can easily find them in the store, even if you've never cooked Korean food before.

Korean Cooking 101,
By Catty (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cooking Korean Food With Maangchi - Books 1&2: From Youtube To Your Kitchen (Paperback)
I've been a faithful follower of the website for a few years, and finally decided to thank Maangchi for all her hard work by purchasing her book. I was so happy with it that now I'm buying a copy for my sister in law, who like me spent time in Korea and learned eat, but not to cook, Korean food. This book is absolutely excellent for the beginner. The directions are easy to follow and the pictures and descriptions of the ingredients, as well as some suggested substitutes (and some warnings about unnaceptable substitutes!) really takes out the guesswork and stress.
I have actually taken the book with me to our local Asian grocery stores to inquire about a specific ingredient or two, and they were able to easily help me find the products I needed. If you need more help, you can look up some of the recipes on youtube and watch Maangachi cooking them herself, so you can learn techniques and what things should look/feel like. If you still have questions, you can go to her website and she'll answer them personally!! The only reason I give the book four stars instead of five is that for the price, I would have liked to have seen more recipes, although you do get most of the basics. As an added bonus, due to the nature of Korean cooking the recipes are dairy free and mostly egg free as well, so they can be easily used for allergy households. There is also a good selection of recipes that either contain no meat or can be made without meat.

Best Korean Recipes,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cooking Korean Food With Maangchi - Books 1&2: From Youtube To Your Kitchen (Paperback)
I found Maangchi on youtube while looking for a traditional pickled radish recipe. I tried it and it is as good, if not better, than some Korean restaurants in the greater NYC area. You can't go wrong with her book. Her videos are simply amazing. I have several Asian cookbooks and one just for Korean cooking and this one beats them all. Get this book!

Fun recipes,

This review is from: Cooking Korean Food With Maangchi - Books 1&2: From Youtube To Your Kitchen (Paperback)
Other than purchasing a few ingredients you might not have in your cupboard, these recipes are fun and a great adventure. Maangchi is so sweet, I'm happy we supported her.
