Happy Pickles









I love fresh pickles! Whenever I went to pizza restaurants in South Korea, I was the one who continuously requested refilling pizza. Not because it is free of charge (hmm...maybe??!), but because I love having pizza with fresh juicy citric pickles! 

Home-made pickle is even coming with pleasant. You can nicely decorate your kitchen, just putting it in pickle jars. Green from cucumbers, red from red peppers, orange from carrots, yellow from yellow peppers, and white from garlic and pearl onions! 

So, let's make pickles!

  • Empty & clean jar - I usually saved jars after emptying pasta sauces. 
  • Any veggies based on your choice & preference (I used, banana peppers, red chilly peppers, cucumbers, yellow onions, and pearl onions)
  • Parsely or Bay leaves (optional)
  • Three Table Spoons of salt
  • One teaspoon of sugar (you can skip if you don't want sweetness)
  • Four Table Spoons of White Balsamic Vinegar (any type of vinegar is okay!)

My favorite balsamic vinegar!


1. The first magic of delicious pickles is cleanliness. Boil water, then pour into empty bottles to disinfect.
2. Thoroughly wash all veggies and cut in a bite-size. Then put them all into the jar.


3. Add salt, sugar, and vinegar.

4. Pour cold purified water until it fills up the jar.

5. Cover the top of the jar with parsley.


6. Keep in the cool place for five days then ready to eat~! Once open the jar, move it to the refrigerator. 

                                                          

Enjoy~!😋😋

Pajeon '파전' - Korean home cooking

                                                           As the school year begins, it is fun to pack lunches every day. The first rule when packing a lunch box is that you should never eat too much - because you sit for at least 6 hours and there are quite a variety of snacks to eat in between. One of the joys of going to school is to collect snacks like a squirrel every day in the office.  It's easy to forget.. Students and other professors often come to the office as well.  So, don't forget to hang a "Busy" sign outside when eating snacks.😉😉 When I opened the refrigerator, I found a bunch of chives that were automatically picked up every time I went shopping. So tomorrow's lunch menu is decided to be Pajeon! Ingredients 1. dough 1 cup flour 1 teaspoon salt 2/3 cup milk 1 egg 2. Inside 1 scallion 1 cup frozen shrimp 1 green...
