"From kimchi to bibimbap, Joo - who hosts a show on the Cooking Channel - breaks down intimidating dishes." - Entertainment WeeklyIn Korean Food Made Simple, Judy Joo, host of the Cooking Channels show of the same name and Food Network regular, brings Korean food to the masses, proving that its fun and easy to prepare at home.

Enjoying the spotlight as the hot Asian cuisine, Korean food is on the rise, and Judys bold and exciting recipes are go-tos for making it at home. "This is a stunning book. Forget for a moment its about the food of Korea. Its just so impressive on many levels. I already crave the Disco fries and Korean eggplant and I wont rest until I have the Korean fried chicken! Judy has written a beautiful, timely, and truly impressive tome, both mouthwatering and so very informative. Julia Child just got a new and wonderful neighbor on my bookshelf." - Geoffrey Zakarian, Iron Chef
