100+ new recipes accompanied by my photography. While my first book introduced you to Korean cuisine, Homemade will help you take your Korean cooking to the next level.

A deep dive into so many of the key ingredients we’ll use in this book. My favorite brands, allergen info, substitution ideas, how to pronounce them in Korean, and more.

 You like my recipes, but you love my stories. The essays from Book 1 will continue in Homemade. You’ll hear about my parents, grandparents, and even my father-in-law, Roberto!

It’s Here!

After nearly FOUR years, I’m so excited to finally introduce you to The Korean Vegan HOMEMADE: Recipes and Stories from My Kitchen, my new cookbook coming out on October 14. With 100+ recipes, more stories, and an enhanced TKV Pantry section, this book is a tribute to all of the culinary inspirations that have shaped my cooking over the years, and a celebration of the magical connections between family, home, and food.

If you enjoyed my first book or the work we do here on the website, I’d be so grateful if you’d consider preordering a copy of Homemade. While it won’t be out until fall, the number of preorders will play an important role in the early success of the book: attracting media attention and determining if big retailers like Target will offer it in store. In short, preorders are critical, and I’d be so grateful for your support. To say thanks, I’m putting together an awesome bundle of preorder incentives to include 10 bonus recipes and a downloadable TKV Pantry section. So stay tuned and hold on to those receipts. More info coming soon!
