The Complete Korean-American Cookbook

We all have favourite family recipes.

Some have been carefully passed down through generations while others are hurriedly told over the phone after a younger family member has fled the nest. It can often be impossible to make the dish quite like it is in your memory; sometimes changes can be made on purpose or out of necessity, but no matter how it evolves over the years, the heart of the dish always remains.

These Korean American recipes illustrate the way two different food cultures fused together create an inventive hybrid cuisine that tastes like home.
