Maangchi's Real Korean Cooking: Authentic Dishes for the Home Cook

Good copy received promptly.Saw this lady on the internet. Really chatty and inspiring.Excellent book

I've been watching maangchi's YouTube channel for years. It's so lovely to have all of her scrumptious recipes in one book. Definitely makes things much easier than ingredients written on bits of paper & screen captures on the phone! My only negative would be that I don't agree with cutting up a crab without killing it first but different cuisines come with different ways of doing things I guess. Nicely laid out, informative, easy to find stuff, lovely pictures & delicious recipes. 5 stars!

We stumbled upon Maangchi's Youtube uploads for kimchi and subsequently watched a few more of her uploads, as they were so good. Because we were so impressed with her website and the recipes we tried from there, we ordered this book. It is equally as good. Very well presented, with plenty of photographs of the dishes, clear instructions for the recipes and guidance regarding accessing/substituting some of the ingredients less readily available outside of Korea. Most importantly; numerous delicious recipes!

The positives is that this is a very good book if you are starting on your Korean food journey. Lots of photos and has many video feeds on utube that complement the various recipes.. I was delighted to add this book after receiving another Korean cook book for a present that sent me gravitating to the kitchen and excite my epicurial taste buds. I knocked a star from this review because the book dust cover and the hard cover was quite badly ripped and torn. As this only for myself this was not so much of a problem, also it was half price, but it was sad to see the inner cover so badly damaged. My photos unfortuantely do not really reflect the ripped and torn hard cover.

Great buy. If you want a real taste of Korean food? This is the book for you. Full of awesome recipes that you and everybody you know can enjoy, from spicy chicken to mouth watering Kimchi, seaweed salads, its all in there. Its step by step guide is easy to follow. You just want to dive in and get started. Seriously recommend it. You won't be disappointed.. I bought it, tried some of the recipes and they taste amazing.

Absolutely wonderful cookbook of korean homecoming, the recipes are clear and thorough, helpful hints and guidance too. Maagnchi is fantastic and so is her cookbook, a great allrounder, I would recommend for all skill levels

I didn't expect this book to be as good as it is. She has it laid out on how to shop for the Korean ingredients and what can be substituted for what (or not at all). There are also pictures on kitchen tools you might need for certain dishes. Then she takes you step by step on how to prepare the meal. She doesn't assume you know everything and makes it simple for people who have little cooking experience.

Love Korean cooking and this book is fantastic,was already a fan of hers so it’s great to have the book with amazing recipes
