What is Korea without Kimchi? It is a staple in many of their traditional dishes, it is so common to find it in all their meals as a side dish. It is usually made out of Napa cabbage, radish, some carrots and fused together with the red hot chili flake known as Gochugaru.
Here we learn the most basic kimchi, it is a great introduction to fermentation and a great dish to make for any meal. So get your jars out and clear out a shelf because your whole kitchen is going to smell like kimchi soon.
Classic Pesto Pasta
The classic Pesto Pasta, green, fresh, fragrant and so so yummy. Who doesn't like a nice green pasta right? The colour itself is so attractive and with the little hints of parmesan cheese it is just an all around flavourful dish. It is also a super simple recipe than can be whipped up in under 15 minutes.
You could easily go to the store to get a simple bottle of pesto sauce and just follow along this recipe to beef it up to make a dish exploding with flavour, buttttt I would suggest trying to make your own fresh pesto. The difference in the fresh basil flavour is LARGEEEEE. So go get yourself onto my PESTO RECIPE and make this pesto pasta!
