I’m loving the new ‘Korean Food Made Simple’ series with Judy Joo.

I’m going to be making myself some Japchae at the first opportunity.

We can draw so much inspiration from experiencing diverse gastronomy from disparate cultures.  A visit to Honey Pig Korean BBQ on a recent trip to the US got me hankering for a trip to South Korea.

The world is becoming a smaller place as technology advances. I’m predicting big things for international food – I can’t wait to see more ‘unusual’ ingredients being stocked in our UK supermarkets. Exposure to the world via satellite TV, great shows and social media is a good thing in my eyes.

Diversify, get excited about food and try something different!
