‘Judy Joo captures the flavors and the heart of Korean food and switches things up just enough to make them accessible and familiar, but not so much that you lose the soul of the recipe. It’s an art!’

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageI have been a long time fan of @chefjuntanaka food. Real gorgeous flavors, simple in concept, and flawlessly executed. His reopened @theninthlondon (closed temporarily after a fire) is one of the coziest and tastiest meals in London. Excellent sourced seafood and produce make for exceedingly fresh dishes including crudos and tartars seasoned delicately just enough to coax out the fish’s natural sweetness and flavors. The dining room was bustling and every table was full— and I can taste why! The gnudi with wild garlic was exceedingly light and fluffy, the chu toro crudo was buttery, lightly salted and kissed with grassy olive oil, and practically melted on my tongue. The whole baked sea bass with umami filled white miso was wonderfully balanced with tart preserved lemon. I also indulge upon a cracking dessert, Choux au Craquelin— a single mammoth choux bun decadently stuffed with fresh pistachio ice cream (probably the best I have had) and a silky dark chocolate ganache.  Still dreaming of it! 
Thank you @chefjuntanaka @theninthlondon @frasercomms!

@judyjoochef Instagram profile imageSharing this recipe from my appearance on the @todayshow for New Year’s Eve— a fabulous gochujang glazed ham recipe. Perfect for Easter as well! Spicy, sweet, salty and savory—everything that you want in a ham. The best part though is using the leftovers the next day for sandwiches. Recipe is on @todayfood website. HAPPY EASTER everyone! Xx
