Finland: Porkkanalaatikko

How appropriate that Finland is where we’re Finnishing the year (see what I did there?). If I counted correctly, this was the 83rd country I’ve cooked from in 2017, which while far short of the 195 I set out to visit, is still nothing to sneeze at. Porkkanalaatikko translates roughly...

South Korea: Bibimbap

Cooking Time: 90 minutes
Bibimbap – translating quite literally to “mixed rice” – is perhaps one of Korea’s best known dishes, and something I’ve been meaning to make since my trip to South Korea.  Bibimbap has become increasingly common in the U.S. in recent years, and I don’t doubt that this is in part...
