Barnes & NobleKorean American- Food That Tastes Like Home by Eric Kim

An homage to what it means to be Korean American with delectable recipes that explore how new culinary traditions can be forged to honor both your past and your present. "This is such an important book. I savored every word and want to cook every recipe!"-Nigella Lawson, author of Cook, Eat, Repeat ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED COOKBOOKS OF 2022-Time, Food52 New York Times staff writer Eric Kim grew up in Atlanta, the son of two Korean immigrants. Food has always been central to his story, from Friday-night Korean barbecue with his family to hybridized Korean-ish meals for one-like Gochujang-Buttered Radish Toast and Caramelized-Kimchi Baked Potatoes-that he makes in his tiny New York City apartment. In his debut cookbook, Eric shares these recipes alongside insightful, touching stories and stunning images shot by photographer Jenny Huang. Playful, poignant, and vulnerable, Korean American also includes essays on subjects ranging from the life-changing act of leaving home and returning as an adult, to what Thanksgiving means to a first-generation family, complete with a full holiday menu-all the while teaching readers about the Korean pantry, the history of Korean cooking in America, and the importance of white rice in Korean cuisine.
