Also their greek yogurt.

I have never made better tzatziki and I learned to make it from an ancient Greek woman who spoke no English.

Lamb chops and hassleback sweet potatoes with garlic herb butter. Not perfect-the chops were too well done and the potatoes tasty but not crispy at all, but the flavors were good.

Kimchi-jeong (pancake) and “smashed cucumber” gochgaru ban chan:


super easy to make. I use my own homemade kimchi for the jeong. Smashing cucumbers is fun, too!

I had a lot of small quantities of veg leftover in my crisper (and a beautiful head of cabbage), so I whipped up some okonomiyaki, sticky rice, and potstickers (from Costco) for dinner. Served it with some gochujang mayo and washed it down with a rhubarb shrub spritzer (homemade!).

Come on up! I’ll make a fresh batch for you :slight_smile:

Okonomiyaki is a go-to dish for me. Such a good way to use up random things and it’s always delicious. I want to experiment with putting some shrimp into them at some point. Could be good… could be mediocre…

We could make it a meal with @kentkb 's Korean ribs. Those look amaaaazing!

Dried shrimp is a standard option in okonomiyaki in Japan, BTW.

Ooh, good call on the dried shrimp. I was thinking of fresh/frozen but was worried about the moisture.

I had a wonderful crepe today (from a food truck - I was hungry) filled with pulled pork, kimchi, a cucumber slaw of sorts, and gochujang. It was so good. Got sauce everywhere, but it made a wonderful, if unorthodox, crepe filling!

I love kimchi. My dad went through a sauerkraut and kimchi making kick a while back. I miss those days. It’s on my list of things to try my hands at when I’m done with grad school!

Years ago I overheard a skinhead in a record shop saying “God wrote the bible in English so we could all learn to speak it.”

They haven’t got any smarter.
