Gochugaru Girl likes sesame seeds very much.
However, I have never made porridge with it before.
Recipes
Spicy Tofu Stew (순두부찌개)
Gochugaru Girl has been thinking about making 순두부찌개 (sundubu jiggae) at home since trying it in Korea. 
Our Korean friends think it’s funny how we have taken to this dish.
Korean Spice Paste
Gochugaru Girl, like the rest of her family, likes the addition of chilli in her food.
Over the years I have tried all sorts of chilli pastes and I now have a Korean one.
Chocolate and Malteser Cupcakes
Gochugaru Girl is looking forward to teatime this afternoon.
Junior Three has been away all week at camp. There is a treat waiting for him when he comes home.
Cherry and Almond Cake
Gochugaru Girl was paid the highest compliment by Junior Two this morning.
She said:
I am turning into my mother.
Instant In-house Ramen
Gochugaru Girl used to loath instant noodles.
The reason was because it brought back memories of incompetent cooking during her childhood.
Fried Rice Cakes (떡볶음)
Gochugaru Girl has tried her first recipe from the Bibigo Cookbook.
I have eaten this countless times at the restaurant and was keen to make it at home. There is something quite satisfying about the chewy texture of the rice sticks.
Date and Orange Cake
Gochugaru Girl likes bringing home different types of food from her travels.
I was intrigued by a bottle of date and orange jam when supermarket shopping recently.
Strawberry Ice Cream (Gelato Di Fragole)
Gochugaru Girl’s much used and much loved ice cream book* is 19 years old.
I hadn’t realised the now faded receipt was still within its pages. It informs me that the book was bought for £12.99 at Hatchards, 187 Piccadilly, on 24 July 1995.
