I grew up eating Korean food at least half the time. When I became a vegetarian, one of the sacrifices I made was most of my Korean food. Although I was able to make some dishes (like the spinach and bean sprout salads), it was difficult to feel like I was getting a complete meal.

This cookbook allowed me to enjoy the flavors of my childhood. It's so nice to be able to flip through a Korean cookbook and know that I can cook everything in it (that's a luxury I think only vegetarians will understand!). All of the recipes I've tried so far are delicious- two thumbs way up!

This is a good VEGETARIAN cookbook for those who want to cook meatless Korean food, but in my opinion, it is missing many delicious and meatless Korean dishes. The receipes are simple and easy (and they offer substitutes for certain Korean foods that might be hard to buy in the US.) Overall, good stuff, but you might want to also get a general Korean cookbook for more variety. You can always leave out the meat...

Simply delectable recipes! It was my first experience cooking Korean foods - What a treat!

Flavors of Korea is a gem of a cookbook! As a vegetarian going through a bit of "menu bordom", I wanted to try Korean food to spice up my palette. I could not have made a better choice and for such a great price. Everything is explained in the book from buying Korean spices, to wonderful menus. The author has done a good job of keeping things simple for those of us who might be a bit intimidated.

Not having a lot of time to prepare meals, I find that the receipes in this book are very easy to prepare and tasty. I use the book all the time. Great content and great for vegetarians that like to try other foods from other countries.

Being someone that loves Korean food. It is refreshing to see that creating a lot of the foods that I enjoy can be created so easily. Even if yours friends are not vegetarians, they will enjoy the recipes that can be either the main course or a side dish. This is by far the best Korean Vegetarian book that I have seen.

I love Korean food but I had found it very difficult to find a good Vegetarian Korean cookbook until I stumbled onto this terrific book. I found fun and easy to prepare vegetarian and many vegan recipes in this very unique book.
