Author Caroline Hwang ably demonstrates that Korean cuisine is one of the simplest, healthiest cuisines - and it's perfect for sharing.

Korean cuisine is one of the simplest, healthiest and friendliest in the world - its dishes are perfect for sharing. It's fun to cook Korean: with just a few easily sourced ingredients you'll be able to create your first banchan, the small but delicious side dishes that are served at every meal, and the amazingly simple gut-affirming kimchi, which works with just about any vegetable.

Koreans often start a meal with the joyful phrase 'Please, eat well!' because they know that food is best eaten in good company and that good health begins with a happy gut.
