Dishes of Korea: Unlock the Bold and Complex Flavours of Korea: Discover Authentic Recipes for Your Home Kitchen

Dive into the rich, vibrant, and diverse realm of Korean cuisine with our book, "Dishes of Korea". The introduction to this gastronomic journey will give you an insight into what to expect and open up a whole new universe of flavours, techniques, and cultural wisdom awaiting your discovery.

The culture and history of Korea are as rich and diverse as the dishes that are born out of this beautiful peninsula. With a history dating back thousands of years, the cuisine is a delectable combination of the vast variety of natural resources the country has to offer, as well as the influences from its neighbours and its tumultuous history. At its core, Korean cuisine symbolises the harmony and balance between nature and humans, a philosophy that is evident in every dish.

"Dishes of Korea" aims to provide a comprehensive exploration into the culinary delights that this peninsula has to offer, ranging from the well-known global sensation of 'Kimchi' to less familiar, yet tantalising items such as 'Hoe', a raw fish dish enjoyed with spicy chilli paste. Each section of the book delves deep into a particular type of Korean cuisine, demystifying ingredients, techniques, and traditions that have been handed down over generations.

Korean food is not merely about nourishing the body; it is a full sensory experience. From the vibrant colours that engage the eyes, the symphony of flavours that play on the taste buds, to the rich, spicy aromas that awaken the senses, Korean food is a testament to the country's profound understanding of nature, the seasons, and our role within it. The art of Korean cooking lies in its balance - sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and spicy - all delicately balanced in a single meal to create a harmonious whole.
