Recipe of the week
Rhubarb kimchi
In 2015, not long after arriving in Brooklyn, I took a kimchi workshop at a local art studio. The class was run by Kala Sung, and her approach to kimchi was so unique and eye-opening, that it has had an enduring influence on how I eat and prepare kimchi today.
Kala’s class opened my eyes to the possibilities of kimchi, with an appreciation for the long ferments that we mostly consume, but also a new appreciation for using kimchi paste as a salad dressing.

I started making salads from my home kitchen in Surry Hills, Sydney in 2011. Twice a week, I would dream up hearty, delicious, vegetable-packed salads, pack them onto the back of my bicycle and cycle them around my neighbourhood, delivering lunch to locals.
I called my little project Arthur Street Kitchen, because I lived on Arthur Street and my home kitchen was my happy place, where I would spend countless hours creating and feeding.
Soon, the local salad-eaters became an intrinsic part of my community.
