Korean Cooking Made Easy
Jay Leno made fun
of it on the Tonight
Show, but Korean
food is showing up
on menus everywhere
as American
diners embrace
the combination of
sweet, salty, sour,
acidic, and spicy
flavors. Now you
can take some the
authentic tastes of
Korea home with you.
Prepare dumplings and scallion pancakes,
barbeque a bulgogi entrée (marinated,
thinly sliced ribeye) with rice, and make
a quick simple kimchi, the classic Korean
pickled side dish. Use ingredients from
your local grocer or enhance the flavors
with some key ingredients from local Asian
markets. The class uses easy to follow
recipes and handouts include shopping
tips for local grocers to source ingredients.
The instructor will also show you how to
easily turn these recipes into fusion (Kalbi
tacos made famous by Korilla and Kogi food
trucks in NY and LA).

Easy Healthy Japanese
Home Cooking
The traditional Japanese diet has been
described as not only healthy but also even
healing.
Learn the wisdom of traditional
Japanese homemakers by preparing simple,
balanced meals. In each class, make a
meal that includes many vegetable dishes
prepared in a variety of healthful ways:
vinegared, dressed, and simmered, together

a dessert if there is time. The menu rotates
with the seasons, allowing you to repeat the

All classes feature lots of vegetable dishes,
but note dates where classes are entirely
vegetarian or contain some fish preparation
or seasonings.
