Exploring the secrets of Korean cuisine, the book caters for novices as well as the more experienced, from stir-fried spicy squid, to sesame and soy marinated beef. The recipes have been created by acclaimed food writer Jordan Bourke and his Korean wife Rejina, whose culinary history forms the basis of the book.

Alongside the recipes there are notes on dining etiquette, a list of key ingredients that are used throughout the book and how and when to use many of the side dishes.
