Kimchi JJim

You’ve probably heard of kimchi jjigae, but less likely of kimchi jjim. They are super similar – pretty much the same thing. Jjigae, however, has a lot of broth and a little less kimchi and meat. Jjim is more like braised kimchi and meat with not that much broth. Jjim is a lot more concentrated…

Meatball Sub

I love homemade meatballs – it is so easy but tastes 10x better than store-bought ones. I feel obligated to tell you that this meatball recipe makes a BIG batch. But this sub recipe is only for 2 meatball subs. Feel free to cut down the meatball recipe, but if you’re like me and you…

Strawberry Cobbler

My fiance’s favorite fruit is strawberry. But I only eat strawberry if it’s paired with something sweet like chocolate or ice cream. I just don’t like how tart it is. I’ve had some really good quality, expensive, super juicy and sweet strawberries too, but I think my first reaction is to flinch because I am…

Peach Cobbler

The end of summer is coming and the peaches are starting to fall in quality. I bought some peaches that weren’t the sweetest nor juiciest. But with fruits, that’s a blessing in disguise.
