The Best Blueberry Muffins

Ingredients

Makes 1 dozen muffins

  • 1¼ cup / 210g all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup / 150g white sugar, plus more for sprinkling
  • ¼ cup / 35g corn starch
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp kosher or sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2½ cups fresh blueberries
  • ½ cup / 120mL whole milk
  • 2 Tbsp salted butter, melted
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp almond extract
  • 1 large egg

Method

  1. Pre heat the oven to 400F / 205C.
  2. Butter a 12-cup muffin tin, cups and the flat overspill areas between, line each cup with cupcake liners.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Tip in the fresh blueberries and toss to coat.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, butter, extracts, and egg. Tip into the blueberry mixture and using a spatula fold gently just until the batter comes together.
  5. Divide the batter among the tins and sprinkle with additional sugar. Place the tin on a sheet tray lined with tin foil and place into the oven.
  6. Bake until golden brown and domed on top, about 23-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean of wet batter.
  7. Transfer tin to a rack and allow to cool slightly before removing from the tins. Serve hot with butter.

Proud to be partnering with @subarashiikudamono and @CityHarvestNYC to help nourish New Yorkers today and throughout the holiday season. City Harvest rescues more than 86 million pounds of nutritious food each year and delivers it directly to families who need it most — an extraordinary mission I’m honored to support.

To help raise awareness, we shared boxes of Subarashii’s beautiful Asian Pears with chef friends, along with a small note about today’s campaign. This initiative will help Subarashii Kudamono nourish 2,300 New Yorkers for a day, a meaningful contribution to City Harvest’s work.

I’m endlessly grateful for this community, for your friendship, generosity, and the joy you bring to the culinary world.

Together, we nourish. Together, we give. 💚

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageAd. Crispy, cheesy, and a little bit sweet…this is Korean Street Toast, the ultimate breakfast of champions. 🍞✨

@ocadouk just launched a Korean aisle featuring some of my go-to ingredients, so I had to share this quick and comforting classic. 🇰🇷

A favourite grab-and-go breakfast in Korea since the 1980s, Korean Street Toast (gilgeori toast) began as a street-cart staple for students and commuters rushing to school or work. Cheap, fast, nourishing, and satisfying & still a nostalgic comfort food today, with long lines at Seoul cafés serving their own versions. 💛

Fluffy omelet, melted cheese, deli meats, and buttery milk bread & finished with a sprinkle of sugar to balance the savoury flavours. It sounds unusual, but that touch of sweetness is what makes it unforgettable.

My secret weapon? Kewpie mayo, Japan’s iconic rich, tangy, and slightly sweet mayonnaise, and you can now find it on Ocado! Spread it on one slice, add ketchup on the other, and you’ve got the ultimate breakfast of champions.

Quick to make, easy to love, and impossible to forget. 💛

60g packaged coleslaw mix or 40g white cabbage, thinly sliced and 20g carrot, peeled and julienned
2 spring onions, julienned
1 tbsp chopped parsley
½ tsp sea or kosher salt
¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg
3 tbsp salted butter, plus extra as needed
2 slices of white bread
1 tsp granulated sugar
1–2 slices mild Cheddar
2–4 slices cured ham
2–4 slices salami

To Serve
1–2 tbsp ketchup
1–2 tbsp Kewpie mayonnaise

✨ Full recipe in my book K-Quick (which you can also find on Ocado!)

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageWelcome back to the K-Viral Kitchen. Today I’m giving a fast-food cult classic a full Korean remix — the Samgyeopsal Crunchwrap Supreme. 🌯🔥

Think @tacobell’s late night legend…but with a Seoul-ful twist. 

Crispy on the outside, melty inside, and loaded with:
• Tender, caramelized pork belly
• Spicy, fresh dadaegi sauce 
• And my gochujang nacho cheese 

Folded, wrapped, seared golden, and finished with all the fresh toppings. 

Smoky, cheesy, spicy, and completely addictive….it hits every craving at once. 💛🔥

And if you didn’t know, yes…the Taco Bell Cantina in Vegas really hosts weddings. Tag the person you’d elope with for a Crunchwrap.” ⤵️

Comment ‘crunchwrap’ for the recipe!
