KOREAN FOOD WE ATE GROWING UP
she turned out so so flouncy, bouncy, moist and quite flirty with juicy bits of berries wrapped in sweet cream and a spongey eggy ssuk blanket
ssuk {korean mugwort} cuts right through the richness of a traditional cheesecake in a woody, bitter, quite grown-up way…and i am here for it!! here’s to appreciating “not too sweet” desserts and celadon green, a color that i can’t seem to resist
as you can see, this recipe was born out of an intimate bond, twisted with layers of grief that sparked a fire. but it’s still fucking delicious. and i hope you get to enjoy it too.
SWEET LITTLE TREATS
a spiced upside-down cake inspired by sujeonggwa, with firm persimmons simmered in a cinnamon-ginger-jujube syrup, then baked beneath a tender olive oil cake and finished with extra syrup!

i wanted to share a recipe that has only brought goodness into my life. after the last bakesale betty inspired recipe shared last week, i decided that the strawberry shortcake experience only gets better when complemented by betty’s infamous fried chicken sandwiches.
