Instant Pot Korean-Style Baby Back Ribs
Summer is here, so that means trips to the beach, day camps, watermelon, and more importantly, picnics! And one of my favorite foods to bring to a picnic is a crowd-pleasing rack of baby back ribs. Who doesn't love delicious fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs? I especially love them Korean style with a soy-garlic sauce. This recipe details how to make these ribs using an Instant Pot, however it is easily converted to stove pot if you don't have one yet. For the video above I de
Instant Pot Korean Chicken Stew (닭찜, Dak-jjim)
I am excited to share my first Instant Pot recipe! I recently bought an Instant Pot on Amazon, and I am in love. I never imagined that cooking delicious foods would be so quick and easy! It is so nice to prepare the food in the Instant pot, then walk away without watching the stove, and a short time later, the food is done! This is my Dak-jjim recipe, or Korean braised chicken stew, which I have adjusted for the Instant Pot. I will be sharing my stove top version of this reci
Spicy Stir-Fry Chicken (닭갈비, Dak-Galbi)
Dak Galbi is super delicious, spicy, sweet, and perfectly balanced with a pool of mozzarella cheese for dipping! This dish is normally cooked at tableside, with sides of red leaf lettuce or perilla leaves. The rice is served at the end as a wonderful spicy fried rice using the leftover sauce and vegetables when you are done eating the chicken! This recipe calls for a korean sweet potato, which has a red skin and a white flesh. Korean sweet potato is firmer than the traditiona
Korean Stir Fried Noodles (잡채, Jap-chae)
Japchae is traditionally served as a side dish for special occasions. The noodles are made from sweet potato starch, which makes it naturally gluten free and healthy! Mixed vegetables such as onions, mushrooms, carrots, and spinach are stir-fried with the noodles to create this beautiful dish. This recipe I've incorporated some Korean BBQ beef (Bulgogi) that I had in my freezer to save time. You can omit this if you do not have this, or if you want to keep the dish vegetarian
Soft Tofu Stew (순두부 찌개, Soon-dubu Jjigae)
Who doesn’t love Soft Tofu Stew? This bubbly stew is delicious, versatile, and can take you only 10 minutes!! You can add almost anything you want: dumplings, kimchi, seafood, beef, or pork! At a Korean restaurant it is served in a ceramic pot (called a 뚝배기, ttukbaegi) bubbling hot, with a raw egg that you drop in yourself. I have always loved soondubu jjigae, and if you try my recipe you will understand why!
In this recipe, I use a pre-made soup base (Tofu Soup Base), so t
Army Base Stew (부대찌개, Budae-Jjigae)
Budae Jigae or “Army Base Stew” originated in the 1950s after the Korean War ended. Food was scarce after the war, and Koreans would take surplus foods from the American military bases and put it in a stew, hence its name. The stew comprises of processed meats like spam, hotdogs, ham, sometimes baked beans and sliced cheese! I love that this dish originated from such an interesting piece of Korean history! Needless to say, this stew is delicious and usually served in restaura
Black Bean Noodles (짜장면, Jjajang-Myeon)
I love jjajangmyeon. It is a very popular take-out dish in Korea, and if you ever watch a Korean drama, there will be at least 1 scene where they order jjajangmyeon! The sauce is made with black bean paste, onions, vegetables, and some kind of meat, typically pork, beef, or mixed seafood. The recipe listed below is for pork jjajangmyeon, but feel free to substitute it with any meat you’d like, or even go vegetarian! Oh, and when you start eating, don’t forget to wear a da
