Korean Chicken Salad and announcement

Hello my dear readers,

I have an announcement to make...

This will be my last post. Yes, this site will go private after a short while.

Well, I am not saying that I am quitting blogging. I have moved my blog from blogger to a new site with my own domain name; http://www.beyondkimchee.com/

Please, visit my new Beyond Kimchee to get this recipe and others, and subscribe via email or RSS. 

Unfortunately I wasn't able to bring all my subscribers to my new site and I need your support to maintain my Korean recipe blog.

Looking forward to hearing from you as always.

Sincerely yours

Pan Fried Potato with Green Beans

I must be either a very simple minded or a extremely boring person.

How could I feel so happy for a single potato...?

I had one potato lounging on my counter and a handful of green beans that I wasn't sure what I was going to do with.

I was hungry and I wanted to EAT them both.., so I put them together.

What a JOY-ous day! I was quite happy how they turned out.

Green Onion Pancakes, and the story of a blue frog

Once upon a time there lived a young frog boy named "Blue".
They called him "Blue" because he was a very unusual blue frog.
Blue lived with his mother in a small cottage near a little stream deep in the mountain of South Korea.
His mother loved him very much and did the best she could to teach him, so that he could grow up to be well mannered and respectful. But alas! Blue was not the most obedient boy you can imagine. In fact he was quite rebellious and often showed the contrary behaviors.

Vanilla Bean Sugar Cookies, Oh! sugar, sugar

WARNING!!! Do not make these cookies.
Don't even dare to put one in your mouth, or your diet is over at the very moment.
I ate 7 of them and I regret...
I meant to eat only one, you know.

But if you really want to taste the simple gourmet flavor of true vanilla sugar cookies, make a batch by all means.
I don't even like sugar cookies but these are truly good; crisp on the edge yet soft in the center with speckles of vanilla beans.
Irresistible is the exact description of how good these are once you put one cookie in your mouth.
