Gyeongju, the museum without walls. Ancient capital of the Silla Kingdom and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You could feel the history and culture just by walking the streets of this beautiful city. Korean cuisine also has a rich history, defined by ancient fermentation techniques and its unique textures and flavors. Here are some of iconic products and techniques that I found around Gyeongju. 1. Injeolmi 인절미, a variety of tteok or Korean rice cake, made by steaming and pounding glutinous rice flour. The rice cake is then coated in toasted soybean powder, which gives it a uniquely nutty taste. The history of injeolmi dates back to the Joseph Dynasty, when it was prepared for a king who fled his palace. 2/4. Onggi 옹기, the traditional Korean earthenware, used for centuries to store and ferment some of the cuisine’s staples: kimchi, soy sauce, doenjang and gochujang (fermented soybean and chili paste). These ancient crafts are still very much alive today, and fermentation remains one of the distintive characteristics of Korean cuisine. 3. Makgeolli 막걸리, Korea’s oldest alcoholic beverage, made by fermenting steamed rice. It has a sweet, milky and fermented taste which kind of reminded me of kombucha. This wine is tied to the city’s history and culture, and here I saw it being sold in a traditional hanok.

Cooking class in Seoul 🇰🇷 thanks to @seoulfoodventure for the experience! We explored Mangwon market to get our ingredients and then got started on our menu: 불고기 (marinated stir fried beef) with 계란찜 (steamed eggs) and finished off with a 김밥 (kimbap) for good measure. Already missing Korea and its amazing food 🤍 또 봐 서울!

Christmas Lunch Carousel 🎄🇮🇹 It took me a few days of prep, but I’d say that everything went pretty smoothly and every dish was a success! It’s bothering me that the last dish is not in a circular plate, but we can’t be perfect 😂 1. Vitello tonnato: thinly sliced veal with a tuna caper sauce, a dish from my region, Piemonte. 2. Cheese and charcuterie board with products from the northeast of Italy, like truffle pecorino and mortandela 🧀 3. Deviled eggs 🥚 4. Agnolotti with white ragù: a type of meat ravioli, also from Piemonte! I hope you all had a wonderful time this holiday season and I wish you all the best in 2025! 🌟

First step on a Paris guide should always be: try a giant chocolate cramique at Aux Merveilleux de Fred 🤎 @auxmerveilleuxfrance I would get on another plane just to eat it again. I’ll also file a petition to have French boulangeries available worldwide because they’re life-changing 🥐 @boetmie looking to expand in Italy by any chance? Traveling inspires my own cooking so much. I get so many ideas from trying new foods and combinations, but sometimes it’s nice to enjoy simplicity. Flour, butter, sugar - it’s easy to forget how much deliciousness can come from these simple ingredients! #paris #parisfoodguide #francefood #visitparis #visitfrance #frenchfood #boulangerie #frenchbakery #cramique #baguette #croissant #bakery #boetmie #auxmerveilleuxdefred #paristourisme #francetourisme #foodguide #traveleurope #travelfrance

First time making naengmyeon (냉면)! 🇰🇷 Very different from what I’m used to, but I love to learn more about Asian cuisine. This is a cold noodle soup (sometimes even served with ice), so it is quite unusual if you’ve never tried it. I tried to customize it a bit with what I had on hand, but I can definitely do better. Overall a nice first try and one more step towards Asian food mastery 💪🏻 #koreanfood #naengmyeon #coldnoodles #asianfood #koreanrecipes #asianrecipes #asiancuisine #asiancooking #koreancuisine #koreancooking #asianfoodlover #koreanfoodlover

Two tablescapes from my days in Barcelona 🧡 Spain once again steals my heart 🇪🇸 Lots of tapas (of course), pan con jamón y tomate and a new obsession: horchata!🥛 Similar to almond milk, but made with tiger nuts or rice in other regions of the world, this drink is super refreshing and perfect for summer. Bonus points if you drop a ball of chocolate ice cream into it 👌🏻

A firm believer that visiting the town market is as important as visiting museums! No better way to immerse yourself in the culinary culture of a place and see the ingredients firsthand. I go home with a renewed love for Greek cuisine, a bag full of herbs and spices and lots of recipes to recreate 💙
