Recipes
Welcome to my recipe blog, where I share my passion for food and flavor with the rest of the world! I’m not the best at fluffy writing, which means you won’t have to scroll through blocks of text to get to the recipe you’re looking for.
sukju namul (bean sprout salad)
Sukju namul is a refreshing and popular Korean side dish that helps to mellow out the kicks we usually get from the spicy dishes I make.
eggplant + chives stir-fry
Eggplant is a great veggie vessel that absorbs flavor readily, so it pairs perfectly with a chives that carry a strong, fragrant flavor.
gaji bokkeum (Korean spicy eggplant stir-fry)
Don’t underestimate how much heat this spicy eggplant stir-fry packs. I would advise you to go light on the Cheongyang chili peppers to lessen the burn.
butternut squash + red curry
A vegan, red curry where the star is a creamy butternut squash, elevated by mushrooms and spinach.
black mochi brownie bites
I get very concerned looks when I tell people that I bake with 100% dark chocolate because let’s face it, this stuff can taste like pure evil when eaten alone. BUT. combine it with some coconut milk and a bit of brown sugar, and you get an incredible rich and decadent treat that leaves you guilt-free!
oi muchim (Korean spicy cucumber salad)
This spicy cucumber salad is one of my favorite banchan dishes and it’s SO easy to whip up!

middle eastern lamb stew (instant pot)
Paired with our Mint + Cilantro Chutney, this Instant Pot lamb stew makes for a hearty and warming meal.
creamy mint + cilantro chutney
Chutneys seem like they'd be easy to make, but getting right may not be as simple as you might think. The balance of spices with fresh herbs needs to be just right, otherwise, a slight imbalance may throw the taste of the whole thing off.
pink radish soup
How can you not like this pink soup?! Radishes have a crisp spice that shines beautifully in this creamy soup. It’s wonderfully refreshing for the season since it can be served either hot or chilled.
pandan extract
Pandan leaves hold a wonderfully delicate flavor that I can only describe as a crossover between vanilla and coconut. It is extremely popular in southeast Asian desserts and making the extract is not difficult at all.
matcha mochi muffins
Don't let the word "muffin" mislead you--these goods are far from dense and rich. Instead, each matcha-filled bite you take will be light, chewy, and most importantly #nottoosweet
matcha-meal cookies
Oatmeal cookies never tasted so good! We’re elevating the oatmeal cookie game with these matcha-filled bites of goodness. Each cookie is infused with the strong taste of matcha green tea, mellowed out with vegan white chocolate.
spicy zucchini + mushroom stir-fry
While light and simple, this dish contains a good deal of heat, soothed by refreshing bites of zucchini squash.
smooth celery soup
Time to bust out that immersion blender for this easy peasy celery soup.
silky steamed egg
Try this delicious method of making eggs that is a classic dish in East Asian cuisine.
shiitake + veggie scraps stock
You can combine things like mushroom stems, kale stems, carrot tops, onion butts, and celery bits, all together in a pot to make a delicious vegetable stock. You don’t even have to add any spices because the natural properties of vegetables carry out a light yet savory profile.
mango + sticky rice
This traditional dessert beautifully marries our two favorite tropical flavors, mango and coconut, in an incredibly simple recipe. With only a few ingredients, you can elevated the sweetness of the mango and creaminess of the coconut in a whole new way.
kale-packed mushroom frittata
Frittatas are a great way to incorporate healthy fats, protein, and vegetables all in one dish. Unlike your traditional frittata, this one is way more loaded with kale and mushrooms than eggs.
