South Koreanesque - In Person

  • 18 Reasons 3674 18th Street San Francisco, CA, 94110 United States (map)

Marie spent many years in South Korea and considers it to be her second home. She loves the generous culture, the mountainous landscape and, of course, the food. South Koreanesque is a Korean ingredient focused class that features the flavors of The Land of the Morning Calm in ways that may be new to you.

You’ve likely had tomato soup before but have you had it infused with savory doenjang, Korea’s answer to miso? You may have heard of kimchi, which is quite popular and with good reason! Typically it’s eaten either raw or simmered in a stew. Roasting it is a game-changer. The kimchi flavor deepens and the sugars present begin to caramelize. We'll combine it with roasted mushrooms, Brussels sprouts and topped with fresh mozzarella and you have a dish that will be permanently on your meal rotation. Finally, for dessert we will take the classic American pairing of peanut butter and chocolate and infuse some sassiness in the form of the much beloved fermented chile sauce, gochujang, with added depth from sesame. 

If you love the flavors of Korea cuisine and wish to play with these iconic pantry staples, then this is the class for you!
