I even make my own Kimchee. Hard things for me to cook Korean Food are not knowing English names for certain ingredients and following Korean Cookbook Recipes that usually don't represent the taste I grew up with. Craving the food, and not living near Korean community got me to purchase many Korean Cookbooks both in Korean and English. One of the book I own that has high review in amazon.com, "Growing Up in a Korean Kitchen: A Cookbook", doesn't even compare to this book. This book has great Korean Food history, and correct representation of Korean words..which lacks in "Growing..". Being a proud Korean, I was a little frustrated with "Growin.." book. "Korean Home Cooking" has beautiful pictures of food, great instructions..and for a change, recipe works! (I usually ommit some minor ingredients that I can't find in regular grocery stores..still successful) I am proud to own and recommend this book to my friends and family. I thought this book deserved my 1st review on amazon.com. I just wish the book was much thicker with many more great Korean food!!!!!
