Hand Taste

di Choi Esther (Autore)

Voracious, 2026

The hotly anticipated debut cookbook from star chef Esther Choi: 100 recipes that teach the secret to cooking like a Korean grandmother, showing how to add extraordinary flavor to everything you touch We all know cooks whose fingertips seem to infuse everything they touch with incredible flavor. In Korean, that magic touch is called sohn-mat, or "hand taste"—and it's not something you have to be born with. Esther Choi picked hers up from her halmoni, or grandmother, who used her hands for everything from smearing cabbage with pepper paste to make kimchi to crumbling tofu for mandu (dumpling) filling and tossing vibrantly flavored noodles for japchae. Hand taste starts with seasoning but ultimately describes a way of cooking rooted in heritage, intuition, and heart. Here, Choi offers delicious entry points to Korean cuisine, with foundational techniques alongside quick weeknight recipes and show-stopping traditional spreads. Hand Tasteis as instructive as it is expressive, with recipes like Kalbi Jjim, Japchae, Kimchi Mac & Beef**,** Halmoni's Jeon, and Korean Fried Chicken Wings. There's something for everyone—whether you know Choi from her beloved restaurants Mokbar and Ms. Yoo, her presence on Food Network, or her infectious online personality. So much more than a guide to mastering Korean cooking, Hand Taste teaches you to trust your gut and cook with curiosity and joy.
