Bibimbap
July 22nd, 2009 | 1 Comment
Bibimbap is a traditional Korean dish. I’ve never actually had authentic bibimbap (actually, I can count the number of times I’ve eaten a Korean meal on one hand), but it’s definitely on my list now!
This was much too tasty (except for the overcooked egg) to go in the Food Gone Wrong category, but it needs a little work before it’s totally right.
This is Not Chicken Tikka Masala

As I mentioned in the first post, this blog is supposed to be from the perspective of a fairly novice home cook. If you were looking for polished recipes and beautiful photography (Me? I’m using a digicam from 1999. Yeah, that’s right, this camera is OLDER THAN A THIRD GRADER), you might want to check out Smitten Kitchen instead. I mean, I can usually execute a fairly complex recipe just fine, but sometimes things just turn out weird.

This was supposed to be the Chicken Tikka Masala from the Sept/Oct 2007 issue of Cook’s Illustrated.
Likes to cook, eat, grow herbs, and collect kitchen gear in Houston, TX.
