Here are some tips you an consider: 1) Simmering = barely boiling at low heat. If you are trying to concentrate flavors by evaporating the water you're just straight up boiling at high heat. If this is consistently a problem you can just prepare the stew with less water in the beginning. 2) Vegetables like zuchini get yellow and mushy if boiled for too long, and lose a lot of nutritional content. You can add it much later to get a better texture. 3) Dried mushrooms can be re-hydrated beforehand by soaking in water. That way you won't have to wait for the mushrooms to hydrate while cooking. | ||

I was in a hurry last night since I was hungry. ^^ I'll delay the zucchini next time and see how that goes. And about the professional quality, I assume you're talking about the wobbly camera and not being centered on the action. I'm still knew to working with a hand-held, my previous vids were all voice-overs until I got the camcorder, so it's a work in progress. -S- | ||

If you like spicy, go with the kimchi jjighae that ought to be very similar to what you see in this vid. Samghae tang is also very good. That's just Korean chicken soup. If they have korean bbq, (galbi or sam-gyup-sal, get that. | ||

I've made it with bacon before, and that was pretty good. I stick with the tuna because it's lower calorie than pork, though. -S- | ||
