Lil’ bun recently came across a recipe for Korean honey pancakes and suggested that we make some since we haven’t had them in a while. Mother deer used to buy these from the Korean market and cook them on the skillet but upon realizing that they had corn syrup in them, she stopped buying them.
Korean treats
Korean sesame bread
On the way home from the dentist, lil’ bun picked up a korean sesame bread mix kit from H-mart. We love these things and used to buy them every single time we came across them at korean bakeries. Korean sesame bread is chewy, stretchy and gluten-free making them super fun to eat!
Korean rice cakes (vegan, gluten free)
I can’t believe it’s wintertime again so soon! I’m usually all for drinking soup to warm up but for some reason this cold season, I’ve been really addicted to Korea rice cakes!

Clean eats: bibimbap
Bibimbap is a traditional Korean rice dish that’s typically served warm. If you don’t already know what it is, it’s basically a bowl of warm rice topped with sauteed veggies, pepper paste and an egg. Then everything is stirred together just before eating. I love bibimbap but I don’t order it often because I don’t […]
