Happy Thanksgiving, KOCONUTS! We hope everyone is having an enjoyable week of relaxation with family and friends. Or perhaps you are having a full week of food prep? If so, we wish you good luck and good vibes!
If you are hoping to cook something new to delight your guests, consider adding these lovely Korean dishes to your Thanksgiving menu. You can find out how to make them all on our cooking show, “The Paikfather“. It just might be a hit with the family this Thanksgiving.
Stir-Fried Spicy Pork (Episode 19)
A meat dish that is a little spicy, a little sweet, and always a big hit is stir-fried spicy pork. This very red dish will be a hit with the family members who love a little spice in their life. But if you can’t handle a little heat, you might not want to bring this dish into the kitchen! See if this can be a hit with your family on episode 19.
Kimchi (Episode 25)
If you would like to delight your guests with a small side dish they can love, you cannot go wrong with the variety of kimchi to choose from. It is quick and easy to make, has a nice crunch to it, and can be eaten right away; it also starts to taste better the longer it has a chance to marinate all those delightful flavors together. Watch Paikfather break down exactly how to make kimchi on episode 25!
Chicken Stew (Episode 35)
There is nothing like warming up to a nice bowl of hearty chicken soup, and now that it’s getting cold outside (cue the music), it is time to whip out the largest pot in the kitchen and make a family-sized serving. Paikfather has a lovely Korean chicken stew recipe you can try out to bring a little something different to the family gathering this year. Try it out on episode 35.
