Korean Cuisine

I am happy to announce that Korean Cuisine, a cookbook I photographed, has just been published. The author is chef and food writer/educator Yongja Kim. I developed a new found LOVE for Korean food because of this book, and I hope you will, too.

For two weeks last fall in a kitchen in Greenwich Village, Yongja (and her team of chopping friends) prepared all the food and brought plates to me one by one to photograph. Daily lunch time was wonderful-- we got to try everything that had been photographed! I watched her make all the recipes and I must say they seem like anyone could make them. Plus there are over 200 pages of color photographs taken by yours truly, and a foreword by Jean-Georges Vongerichten.

Although the book is in English, there is not yet an American distributor (it is published by Yekyong, from Korea). It can, however be purchased by following this link or by visiting the Korean book store in NYC, KORYO BOOKS (35 W. 32nd Street) will have them from the beginning of next week. They will sell for about $37.
