Product description
Review
"This is such an important book: an enquiry into identity, and a rich repository of memories and deliciousness. And, as deeply personal as it is, it invites everyone into the kitchen with such brio. I savored every word and want to cook every recipe!"--Nigella Lawson, author of Cook, Eat, Repeat
"Eric Kim is a triple threat: great writer, elegant innovator, and sublime aesthete. Korean American is far more than a collection of essential recipes and deeply felt memories; it is an important ode to a beautiful family."--Min Jin Lee, author of Free Food for Millionaires and Pachinko, a finalist for the National Book Award
"Eric's book is wonderful. Every page shows his personality and good taste, and the recipes are inventive, fun, and traditional all at the same time! Very Korean and very American--with lots of kimchi."--Maangchi, author of Maangchi's Big Book of Korean Cooking
"In Korean American, Eric Kim gives his readers bold new recipes and expansive yet grippingly personal essays, but also a model for the dream mother-child relationship in Jean and Eric: mutually adoring and understanding, with unlimited room for connection and growth. I've never read a book like it, and didn't know how much I needed it."--Kristen Miglore, author of Genius Recipes and Genius Desserts
"The recipes in Korean American are nuanced and multi-layered, flirting constantly between harmony and tension."--Cool Hunting

I have made most of his recipes from NYT Cooking and had to pre-order this book as soon as it went on Amazon.
Needless to say I have been anxiously awaiting it's arrival for months.
It was worth the wait and is now filled with bookmarks of recipes I want to make.
I already tried the Whipped Cream Snacking Cake and it was simple and impressive and a great hit with everyone that tried it.
Thanks so much Eric for this amazing book.
