aloha aeri!
is bibim kooksu and bibim nangmyun the same thing? if not what is the difference? i tried it at a restaurant and thought it was like bibim bap but they used noodles instead. can i use the ingredients that u used in bibim bap? and what kind of noodles would i have to get? thanks for your help.
tina from hawaii
Hi, tina
so.. maybe you can try it someday.. hehe thanks !!!
aha… Kooksu is noodles.. so it can be different kinds of noodles… but nangmyun is special kind of noodle… that can be one different..but bibim kooksu and bibim nangmyun will be almost similar… the sauce can be different but can be same also.. my bibimbap sauce will not be that sweet and sour compare with bibim nangmyun sauce.. Acutually I’m planning to post the recipe soon.
p.s I will post the ingredients also..so you can get the idea what kind of noodles you need.. okay ??
hi^^ how are you? take care
Hi, meo
I’m pretty good..thanks.. How about you ? Have a great week ~~~
Hi Aeri,
I tried your recipe for JapChae, and my little girls love it so much. I thought they were going to explode they ate so much, hehe. Anyways, I wanted to thank you for the recipe again. Next, I will be attempting to make my own kimchee. Oh yeah, if you get the chance to go the Pusan International Film Festival this year, you may be able to see me in a film there, “Resilience”.
Hi, Brent
I’m happy to hear your girls enjoyed it very much. thanks !!!! wow.. you are in a flim ??? wow… you are an actor ??? Unfortunately, I’m living in USA now. I want to see you in a film though.. hehe thanks
What a sweet father you are.
Hi!
I just found your cooking videos on youtube a few weeks back…and then I saw you had a website….thank you so much for putting this site up! ^^ I have been dating a korean guy for about a year and a half and have been trying to learn how to make some yummy korean dishes…hehe….your website was so useful for me (and his tummy!) lol

Hi aeri, I ADORE your site!!! i’ve tried few recipes and it was all great!! i love them all!!! i have a request if you don’t mind putting 고등어 (the fried one) recipe because i’ve been looking everywhere… thank you!!
hi, cornellia widiastuti
Nice to meet you
hehe… I’m very happy that you loved all the recipes you tried so far..thanks !!!
aha.. fried 고등어..actually you don’t need recipe for that.. just buy 고등어.. (there are several types..) for good fried 고등어,.buy already salted 고등어.. then.. fry it with oil..that’s it.. if it’s fresh 고등어 without salt… sprinkle some salt for both sides… and marinate some time..then fry it on the pan with oil.. that’s it.. hehe but for you ..I will add it to my list .. thanks

언니한나부탁있는데요 잔치국수 그리고양념간장어떻게만들어요? 식당갔어는데 (김밥나라) 아줌마가양념간장안해줘요 ㅜㅜ너무먹어싶어~~ 건강하세요~~
Hi, meo
아.. 잔치국수랑 양념간장이요 ? 조금 기다려줄수 있어요? 리스트에 적어놓고 언제 한번 올리도록 할게요. 고마워요 ~~~
안녕하세요 ^^
youtube에서 보고 왔어용 ~ (jcndmj)
음 이번엔 남친이 집들이를 하는데요…
요리를 제가 해야될꺼 같은데…. – -
뭐뭐해야할지 …..
간단하면서도 간단하지 않은것처럼 보이는 음식들 없을까요??? ㅋ
Hi, 명지
손님들이 남자친구 친구들인가요 ?? 주로 한국분들인가요 ?? 보시다시피 한국음식은 은근 손이 많이 가요 그래서 손님초대 음식이면 시간계산을 잘해야하죠. 젊은층 친구들이라면 분식종류로 상차림 하면 좋을것 같은데… 갈비나 불고기는 하루 전에 제어놓고 당일날 구워서 내면 되니까.. 둘중 하나 메뉴에 넣고.. 잡채나.. 전이나.. 반찬 몇가지 미리 만들어 놓을수 있는거에.. 된장국 ???
oh~~~ 남친 집들이를 위해서 요리하는 착한 여자친구네요~~~
분식위주로 한다면..
떡볶이나 김밥, 전… 오뎅국..탕수육같은걸로..할수도 있구요…
근데.. 그렇게 다들 간단하지만은 않네요 ^^:; 에공…
Hello Aeri~shii,
I have been a big fan on youtube!!! I see that you are not only a wonderful chef, but also a fantastic photographer! Maybe you can help me, I am looking for a great picture of bulgogi – the ones I find on the internet are not that appetizing. Could you let me know i have one or are interested in getting involved in a small photo project? Please let me know.
Robert
Hi, Robert
Thanks for your comment. You gave me a big praise. hehe… As you see, my bulgogi picture isn’t that good since I used my old camera at that time. I was planning to take some of the pictures again with my new camera someday.. so maybe I can give you better bulgogi picture sometime, if it’s the only picture you need…. Your project is emergency ?? I’m very slow doing things these days… so I wonder how soon you need that bulgogi picture. thanks !!!
Aeri- Shii,
Kind of emergency. Can you email my private email? Thanks
Hi, Robert Kim
I sent you a reply from youtube. Thanks
