Korean food and recipes

Kit Kats

Kit Kats

It all started because the big Kit Kat blocks were really cheap at the supermarket. Now every time I’m making a shopping list he says, “Kit Kat!” I refuse to buy them now.

He really likes the white chocolate or caramel Kit Kats. Does your country have unique Kit Kat flavours? I had wasabi flavour in Japan.

I also realised that Nestle makes Kit Kats everywhere in the world except the US where it’s Hersheys. That’s weird to me because Hersheys has such a different taste.

 

Cheese Smell

Cheese Smell

So he can be really lazy putting lids back on kimchi properly and doesn’t care about there being a strong kimchi smell, but suddenly he doesn’t like there being a strong cheese smell! The couple we are living with bought some fancy cheeses (if you guys are reading this, don’t worry! I don’t mind the cheese smell and it’s funny to see him react to it) and he complains every time he opens the fridge.

Anyone who has lived with Koreans probably knows that eye-watering kimchi smell every time they open the fridge. I don’t mind a bit of a smell but sometimes it can be too much. Is that why there are special kimchi fridges in Korea?

The reason is comic is up late is because I’ve had some problems with my tablet (Bamboo manga pen and touch) and the program I use Opencanvas. A driver was updated I think and since then I can’t scroll using the tablet, it zooms instead. It’s not a massive problem but it’s annoying and makes drawing harder… and it shouldn’t happen! With another program there doesn’t seem to be a problem but with opencanvas and opencanvas lite it’s doing it. I’m not sure if it’s the program or the tablet or both causing it. My tablet is getting old. We tried for hours searching for a solution but couldn’t find much and nothing worked. If you know how to fix this please tell me!

Cooking Filipino Food

A friend shows us how to make some Filipino food!

So this took a surprising turn. Mr Gwon who always wants me to kill cockroaches, spiders, moths….everything….. felt sorry for the slug!

Roast Pork

Roast Pork

Life is so hard isn’t it?

Actually this was the second time I’ve made roast pork this week because the first attempt was eaten mostly by him all in one day. I’m trying to ration the second one so we can use it in some other meals. He told me that it’s too delicious.

Taro Latte

Taro Latte

Then he asked the owner of the cafe (who is Korean) why there was no bear face on his latte! The owner was very apologetic and said it takes time and next time to please let them know that he wants it. I was embarrassed that he asked though!

However, the taro latte was really really nice! If you don’t know what taro is.. I’m not sure exactly how to explain… like a purple sweet potato? Anyway it’s used in some Asian desserts and is delicious.

There are more and more Korean style cafes popping up in Sydney and it’s really awesome.

Omelette

Omelette

Hands up who has had this happen?

I was using a pan I had never used before and the egg just stuck and was beyond saving. Scrambled eggs for everyone!
