[ENG] Bibimbap


I suddenly wanted to eat rice with gochujang, but i know it wouldn't be that good with just rice & gochujang so i decided to make bibimbap!  It's pretty simple, but requires  a bit of time & patient to cut & cook all the veggies. And i really love it, it's really tasty and also healthy. It has lots of veggies, so it has become my "vegetable delivery system" since i'm so lazy to eat my vegs by its own lol

I didn't follow the recipe 100%, i just used the veggies that i can find easily at the fresh market, so please  refer to the original recipe for the full measurement (i put the link above the ingredients list). You don't have to use all the veggies listed in the recipe, but at least use 3 kinds of veggies.

By the way, if you're making it for you and your family, you may want to consider doubling (even tripling!) the recipe. Because after all the hardwork cutting & cooking all the veggies & beef i think you'll want to be able to store it and eat at least twice. (or am i just the only one being lazy here? lol) The 1st time,  i made 1 recipe, it's gone in a flash. Then the 2nd time, i doubled the recipe, it's still gone in a flash -.- The 3rd time, i tripled the recipe, it's still gone in just two days... orz

[ENG] Toasting Sesame Seeds At Home

This is not a recipe actually, since it's just toasting sesame seeds lol. Toasted sesame seed is widely use in korean cooking, usually i just skipped it, but since i make quite a lot of korean food, and wanna make many more in the future, i decided to not skip it anymore. I couldn't find any store-bought toasted sesame seeds that's why i just buy the raw one and toasted it at home.

For the toasting method, i watched a youtube video from one of my favorite korean cooking vlogger, Maangchi. I pretty much just follow the instructions. And also Maangchi said that the seeds will start to pop while they're toasting but mine didn't pop at all i don't know why :( But i'm pretty satisfied with the result so it's all good kkk...

[ENG] Strawberry Syrup + How to Make Strawberry Soda & Strawberry Lemonade

Hi everyone!! After almost two month write not even a single thing on this blog, i'm finally back! lol Last month, there were soo many things i wanna do, but i ended up doing nothing -.-" 

Anyway it's been really hot these days and it makes me wanna drink lots of delicious cold summer drinks. And as i always do everyday, i watched youtube & found some summer drinks recipes from Foodwishes (my fav food vlogger!). This one is really simple to make, it's literally just strawberry, water & sugar. No food coloring, the gorgeous red color of the syrup is all comes from the strawberries!!

You can make lots of different summer drinks with this, strawberry soda, strawberry tea, strawberry lemonade, just use your imagination & try some different combinations. But,  the simplest & actually my favorite is, just mix the syrup w/ water & ice cubes :) pure strawberry flavor!!
