matcha shortbread cookies

September 22, 2013

Hi again! This past week, I said a wistful goodbye to paradise and headed back home to visit my own parents, while Bowl #2 stayed in Honolulu for a little while longer to enjoy some alone time with his family. It ...

myulchi bokkeum (stirfried anchovies with almonds and walnuts)

September 16, 2013

Coming from a Chinese family means that I ate a lot of weird things indiscriminately when I was growing up. But we never really had a lot of anchovies. Actually, up until recently, I really only knew of anchovies as ...

white nectarine mini-crisp

September 12, 2013

OK, so I know what this looks like. It looks like another summer recipe. (After I already posted

japchae! (and beef bulgogi!)

September 6, 2013

All right, so I might be breaking some of my blog rules (gentle guidelines?) with this recipe. It's not technically difficult -- if I made it, it's definitely not -- but it's a bit of a hassle. And it's not super great for ...

jalapeno sweet corn muffins

August 25, 2013

Happy Sunday! A few months ago, I was back home visiting my parents and noticed a box of sweet corn muffins sitting on the kitchen table. Oh, that's interesting, I thought, and next thing I knew there was only one left and incriminating crumbs ...

simplest blueberry muffins

August 19, 2013

Happy Monday! It's such a foreign idea to me that summer is ending. With the bar exam just a few weeks behind us, it feels like it's barely begun. Even so, I know I should get my blueberry recipes out of the way now, so here's the second of the two I made this summer. Last week I posted the first of two blueberry recipes I made this ...

bibim guksu (비빔국수)

August 15, 2013

Yay, today I have a recipe to share that I've been itching to post! I've been trying to stagger my posts for these six weeks since I'm bound to run out of things to say sooner or later, without my own kitchen to make messes in -- right now I'm relying on a backlog of ...

blueberry buckle coffee cake

August 13, 2013

Happy Tuesday! After all the excitement of Sunday, it's just been sunny peacefulness as usual here. (Phew.) Before blueberries go out of season, I thought I'd share the first of a couple of recipes with blueberries that I made earlier in the summer, ...

galbi wraps and zucchini jeon

August 9, 2013

I'm so excited to share some of Bowl #2's mother's cooking. I learned how to make bibimbap and bindaetteok from her last time we visited, so I was super eager to learn how to make more Korean food this ...
