yummy in addition to messy
Thus 1 day, I was draining the pungent kimchi inwards the kitchen - it was in addition to thus smelly the cats only walked the other direction when they caught a whiff. It felt weird to add together butter to the pan in addition to slow caramelising the kimchi cabbage leaves. Hold on, ain't butter a no no inwards Korean cuisine since they ordinarily role sesame stone oil or every bit piddling frying every bit possible I was thinking to myself. Never mind, I kept telling myself, if it does non travel out I tin dismiss ever larn dinner outside.

After assembling everything together in addition to pan frying the ensemble on a shape atomic number 26 grill pan, it did hold off inviting peculiarly alongside the melted cheese. A seize alongside teeth of the quesadilla confirmed why Americans beloved Kogi's version - it was freaking awesome stuff!! You don't larn the sum whammy of the fermented cabbage leaves inwards this version but a mild smoky gustation alongside caramelised bits that seemed to mingle in addition to thus good alongside the toasted sesame seeds in addition to melted cheese.
