This cookbook was written by Dr. Jia Choi, an expert in Korean cuisine. For this book, the author selected from her cooking classes 28 dishes that her foreign students have particularly enjoyed. Another attractive aspect of the book is its freestanding design: it stands up just like a tabletop calendar! Set it up in the kitchen, and you can glance over the recipes as you cook. With the recipes and pictures on facing pages, it's possible to take everything in with a single glance. Other helpful features are icons on the top of the page that indicate about how much time is needed to cook each dish and whether or not a given dish is suitable for vegetarians.
