This is a spicy slaw, that looks sort of like kimchee, is spicy like kimchee, but really is a slaw. I loved the texture, and I especially liked it with black pork belly.

Ceviche is easier to make than you’d think. The two main ingredients are fresh fish (sushi grade) and lime juice. Don’t let raw fish scare you from trying this recipe. The acid in the lime juice cooks the fish without using heat (i.e, heat from stovetop, oven or grill). Tuna along with fresh vegetables, Thai chili peppers, and lime juice gives this dish a light, citrus zing. Serve as an appetizer or side dish.

I have not yet met a person that doesn’t like Pad Thai. This noodle dish has multiple versions. There is the pink version from the street vendor in the market, the brown version like my mom’s seasoned with black soy sauce, and this restaurant version which seems to please all. Buy the skinniest rice noodles you can find; it will double in size once cooked.

This is a super simple dish to make, perfect for a fall evening when the weather is getting cold and you feel like something warm and spicy to comfort and soothe you. Buy a nice loaf of crusty bread to mop up this curry.

By Grace Niwa, New Asian Cuisine

This is a very easy and simple side dish usually served as “banchan” at Korean restaurants. I like making it at home to accompany Korean bbq or just to eat on its own. You can usually find soybean sprouts at the Korean or Asian market. The nutty taste and the crunchy texture of the soybeans make it fun to eat plus it’s good for you!
