What's with the format of this book?,
By
This review is from: The Best of Korean Cuisine (Hardcover)
I ordered this book as a Valentines present for myself, also to get in touch with my Korean side. (I'm half Korean) None of the recipes seemed at all familiar to the ones my mother made except the Barley tea. The format is confusing to me also. Everything is done per celebration versus chapters of entrees. I do appreciate some of the history and explanation of customs, but not enough to recommend this book to anyone.

The Best of Korean Cuisine?? Really??,

This review is from: The Best of Korean Cuisine (Hardcover)
If you are interested in Korean food, there are some Korean cookbooks out there that are really good. This is not one of them. I don't know where she got these recipes, but they are simply wrong. I have yet to see one that either sounds good, or authentic. Not only are the ingredients not right, the methods of preparation is incorrect. If you made the cabbage or eggplant Kim Chi as she states, they would be nothing but mush. She gives a recipe for Mandu that says how to make the wrappers, but not for the filling. I have no idea why. I think someone was messing with her when they gave her these recipes. My wife and I still wonder if she has tried these herself. I love Korean food and this is my thirteenth Korean cookbook. I would recommend any other one before this one. Including the one that has all the ingredients in grams. Save your money, unless you plan on purchasing this for a joke on someone.

I know my Korean food and I cook it at home as well. The ingredients might be correct, but there is no way anyone would make 2 pounds of kimchi with 1 tablespoon of chili powder. That is not enough to season the kimchi! If you're going to try any of these recipes, I would look for them online elsewhere and hope that the recipes you find have enough seasoning to make your food taste good. The bulgogi recipes (bbq beef) don't even have enough ingredients for the marinade to cover the meat!
I wish I could delete this from my kindle forever. As is, it's stuck in the archive now. Save your time and don't bother even though it's free.
