Hi Carol! I do so love your blog. Not study related so I apologise, but I’d really like to start cooking Korean and Japanese recipes as I love the cuisine when I eat out and I’ve found some delicious-looking recipes through your blog. Do you have any go-to blogs or recipe books? And tips for finding ingredients in the U.K.? Thank you in advance for your time!
hello!! i have a few go to’s:
• maangchi is my go to site for all korean recipes. i’ve tried quite a few of hers and they’re 10/10, every time
• justonecookbook is my holy grail site for japanese recipes - again, i’ve tried quite a few from here and they’re always delicious
• not japanese or korean but joythebaker has some amazing recipes ✨ i especially recommend her brown butter walnut brownies + brown butter pecan scones (can u tell i rly like brown butter)
• this isn’t japanese or korean but gets an honourable mention bc it’s THAT good: if ur in the uk, have u ever been to dishoom? it’s an INCREDIBLY tasty restaurant that serves a indian/iranian (i think? i may be wrong though) hybrid cuisine. it’s sooooo so tasty, so do go if u have the chance! anyway, they recently released a recipe book for all their dishes, and they’re 🔟🔟🔟🔟🔟 (i recommend their matar paneer, chicken ruby, masala chai and house black dahl)
as for finding ingredients in the uk, it’s pretty easy tbh as long as ur in a big city like london! u can go to asian supermarkets for any of the ingredients and they’ll have them. if not, try online supermarkets or amazon for more long lasting ingredients like dashi etc
