I'm honored to hear you think my kimchi is the best you've ever had! I always believe any recipe can be tweaked and improved on, but with a compliment like that, it's hard to want to improve on it anymore!MyEpikoreanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00706202009649995544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5033911317027369900.post-57041446493899480652008-05-27T21:53:00.000-07:002008-05-27T21:53:00.000-07:00I loved the kimchi you made. I think it's by far the best kimchi I've had, and I've had a lot throughout my life growing up Korean American. I love your recipe, the fabulous pictures, and the wonderful descriptions of everything. You have such a way with words. Keep up the super job.Julianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5033911317027369900.post-38398552682064961712008-05-14T10:39:00.000-07:002008-05-14T10:39:00.000-07:00Mmm... No, but I read a review recapping Bourdain's visit and the type of foods they ate, and the whole episode strikes me as a poor representation of Korean cuisine. I mean, yes, Koreans do eat chicken anus (ddak-tong-gip- literal translation word for word is chicken poo house), but there's more to Korean cuisine than soondae, blood sausage (stuff I won't touch after I mistook it for a chocolate dessert when I was little) and nakji hwe, live baby octopus (Fatman in Seoul used to have this crazy video of him eating nakji hwe, and I almost threw up watching the little tentacles continue to wiggle, writhe, cling, and crawl up like earthworms on his chopsticks even after being cut up). I admit though, I still am a bit curious about the episode though (maybe it's that sensationalist side of me), so if it's not too much trouble, please pass it along.MyEpikoreanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00706202009649995544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5033911317027369900.post-14186808765374478762008-05-13T21:18:00.000-07:002008-05-13T21:18:00.000-07:00"Bursting with Aristocratic Bossam" sounds a bit dangerous, but I'm glad you finally went ahead and made some kimchi. Did you ever manage to get ahold of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations Korea episode?erainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04672741923698230503noreply@blogger.com
