Cooking authentic Korean food at home doesn't have to be intimidating or complicated—in fact, it can be as fun and engaging as reading your favorite graphic novel! Join us for a virtual conversation with artist and author Robin Ha as we explore her New York Times bestselling book, Cook Korean!: A Comic Book Cookbook.
Fun to look at and easy to use, this unique combination of cookbook and graphic novel is the ideal introduction to cooking Korean cuisine at home. Robin Ha’s colorful and humorous one-to three-page comics fully illustrate the steps and ingredients needed to bring more than sixty traditional (and some not-so-traditional) dishes to life.
