Damn Delicious® was simply a hobby, but now it’s my full-time job.

About Damn Delicious

Coming from a very traditional Korean household, I was destined to be one of three things: a lawyer, a dentist or a doctor. So as a grad school hobby, I created a Tumblr account in April 2011 to document some of my favorite recipes. I had one reader, making less than $0.30 per month.

But 19 years later, Damn Delicious® has grown into something that I never thought possible. I have connected with readers all over the world, conquered so many culinary feats in my kitchen, and collaborated with brands that I always dreamed to work with.

Damn Delicious has even grown into an amazing team of individuals working together to create the best possible recipes. Together we create recipes, step-by-step tutorials, and videos that focus on quick and easy meals for the everyday home cook to show you that it really doesn’t take much to make a homemade meal completely from scratch.

  1. This is a relatively easy soup to prepare, but is creamy and mildly spicy. Definitely worth the time to collect the ingredients and the 1/2 hour or so to make. Yum!

  2. used the scratch sloppy joe’s recipe as offered. all participating enjoyed the spicy, not hot, flavor. our family is trying to do less preservative in sauces. This was great and time to prepare was not too bad for folks who have a range of spices and prep bowls.
    looking forward to trying more dishes. Thanks

  3. I love y our recipes. please send me more of your delicious recipes

  6. I would love to make your sourdough biscuits. Where to make sourdough discard?  Recipe?

  7. Your creamy tortelini soup is the best I have ever had. Today I am making the creamy chicken and mushroom soup. Sure to be good!

  8. I love your Korean Beef Bulgogi recipe- my son is in the US Navy and we both made it while we talked on the phone. We agreed it was the best recipe and most authentic flavor! Now, when he come home on leave, I make that as one of our “home” meals. Thank you for sharing !

    • Thank you, Military Mom and please tell him as well….. We appreciate his service and sacrifice for our country’s freedoms. God bless y’all and Merry Christmas!

  9. Hi! I have been using your recipes to cook for my family of 6 for years, and every one of them has been delish! My kids have now grown up and moved on to their own lives, and I just recently lost my husband to ALS, so I am now a single household and have no idea how to cook for 1! Do you happen to have any recipes made just for 1, or a cookbook dedicated to single cooks? Even if I halved the regular recipe and froze what I didn’t eat right away, with my busy schedule, I’m afraid I would never be able to eat all of it while still safe to eat. Suggestions? Thank you for creating and sharing such amazing recipes with us! Alicia

  10. I’ve followed your recipes for some time and enjoying the journey. We, my lady and I, enjoy new recipes and good food. Thanks for the adventure. 

  11. Your recipes are in my weekly meal rotation. They absolutely never disappoint! THANK YOU!

  12. Just made your carbonara. Delicious! Glad I came across your site.

  13. Your recipes are fabulous.  I always find inspiration.  Last night I made marry me chicken for the first time for a bunch of girlfriends. It was so good. I can’t wait to do it again. I really appreciate the little video so I could just watch it and then not have to be reading the recipe as I was cooking with them  enjoying glass of wine.  anyhow, it’s been years I just love so many recipes and really appreciate your commentary and humour and wanted to let you know thanks

  14. Keep up the great and tasty ideas…buying your cookbook for my wife.
    She is also hosting our family’s Thanksgiving dinner…any insights ( a rather naive question) plus due to diet restrictions (current medical issues) have you generated any great baked potatoes ideas? or…some bland but tasty items for at least another month – counting the days until I can unleash my hunger for the more tasty items…I have saved your emails for several years…actually my tone is one of appreciation for your format and smile and tenacity.

  15. I’ve just found your site, and can’t wait to try some of the recipes as they look/sound good and relatively easy. I always like to try the recipe first exactly as is, as that tells me a lot. Printed out the “Shrimp Egg Rolls” to try tomorrow. The fried rice for freezer will be next. I’ve never had fried rice with Pineapple (but I do like pineapple). I am a bit of a purist though, but am going to try it! After I’ve tried a few recipes, and like them, will be back to purchase your book. Thanks for all the great recipes and tips.
    ~~ One question, on the egg rolls, if one wants to make enough to freeze, do you cook/fry before freezing? I assume you do and you bake them to reheat?

  16. Aloha Chungah,
    I want to make the Raspberry Galette with my home grown raspberries, but on your site
    when it says Jump to Recipe………no recipe appears!! Please fix or email me the recipe PLEASE
    Aloha, Joan Marie

  17. Hi Chungah, I’ve been using your recipes just 3 years or so, but you’re my absolute favorite. Your recipes have been consistently flavorful, easy to follow, and diverse, without any specialized equipment required. Most of your ingredients are standard items in our kitchen or can be found in any supermarket, yay!
    I’m 67 and semi-retired. I cook only when I want to, but I will make your recipes even when I’m tired because the final product is always worth it. Thank you for sharing your recipes.

  18. I enjoyed the clarity of the instructions and recipes.
