Korean American by Eric Kim blends memoir and kitchen magic in a heartfelt celebration of identity, family, and flavor. Through more than 85 recipes—many rooted in tradition, others boldly reimagined—Eric invites readers into his life, sharing the dishes that shaped him, from classic kimchi jjigae to gochujang-buttered toast. Whether you're preparing a full Korean barbecue spread or just making dinner for one, this book speaks to the beauty of creating your own cultural connections through food.
Why we love this book: It’s part cookbook, part love letter—to Korean flavors, to American comforts, and to the power of cooking your story into every dish. Eric’s writing is funny, touching, and unforgettable.
Fans of heartfelt food writing, Korean cuisine newbies, and anyone building a bridge between heritage and home cooking.
