"Each season forms its own chapter with approximately 15-20 recipes and foundations, presenting traditional Korean technique with locally sourced produce. Breakout star chef Jung Eun Chae makes everything from scratch in her home kitchen on the outskirts of Melbourne, Australia, from tofu to gochujang, soy sauce to kimchi, makgeolli to doenjang.
