Item Description

About the Author  -   Namkoong was born and raised in Hawai‘i where her father had a Korean restaurant in the early 1950s. She has been part of the culinary scene in the state since the mid 1970s, as the co-founder of The Compleat Kitchen retail stores and then as the food editor of the Honolulu Advertiser. 

Kalbi, kimchi, meat chon and mandu are some of the delectable Korean dishes we love in Hawai‘i. But did you know that some of these dishes are unique to Hawai‘i in the way they are prepared and served?

Food writer Joan Namkoong, a second generation Korean American, draws on her island heritage to explain the Korean kitchen in Hawai‘i, distinctly different from a Korean kitchen in Korea. The ingredients, the seasonings, the textures, and flavors in Hawai‘i bear the history of Korean immigrants who came to the islands in the early 1900s. Succeeding generations and more recent immigrants have put their mark on Korean food in Hawai‘i, a popular cuisine that has evolved over the past century.
