Originating in the same part of the world but very different in content and style, the dishes of Japan and Korea are surprisingly easy to prepare in our own homes. Once, authentic restaurants were rare outside Japan but now more and more people are falling in love with the cuisine. The simplicity and freshness of the ingredients, combined with the purity of the cooking methods, make it appealing to look at and ideal for a healthy lifestyle. Offering a delicious contrast, Korean food is particularly hearty and satisfying. Included here are favorites such as Barbecued Beef, Kim Chi and the pancakes and noodles which are an integral part of Korean cooking.
