Can’t upset the kimchi master! On every trip, I love to include at least two hands-on cooking classes so everyone can learn about the local cuisine wherever we travel. If this sounds like your kind of trip, sign up for the next one! See the “travel with me” page in my bio!

I’m loving Anyday’s glass dishes for my one-pan meals. Check out my frittata, made with the last of this summers tomatoes. I can bake and serve it right in the same dish, then I use the silicone-rimmed glass lid to seal up the leftovers and pop them in the fridge!
