SO we moved into our new place and as we got the kitchen stocked and ready to get cooking... and baking... I realized that only two of the burners on the stove top worked (And of course they are the smallest two). Then, as I went to bake my first loaf of bread, I made the horrifying discovery that only the bottom heating element works in my oven. Let's just say, I felt a little like I was back in a Korean kitchen and for a moment was discouraged. Of course, I then came to my senses and remembered that I am in fact, the ovenless chef and have been trying my best to rock out the ghetto electric range. :) Anyways, a month ago (shame) I posted an onion soup which is tasty and all, but not really a summer dish, and I am sure the heat and humidity are working their way into your kitchen by now... so I will be working on some summer friendly posts.
Until I get those up for you, please take a moment (AKA few hours/days) to browse through this blog that I found while in Korea. Melissa over at 519 Kitchen has been using Korean grocery staples to make her own foodie treats for some time now and has stock-piled great ideas for skillet and oven users alike. She also happens to have a few homemade doggie treats if you happen to have a furry friend at home in need. So please, check her out and leave a comment for her to encourage and thank her for sharing her experiments with fellow Korean Kitchens and ovenless chefs!!
