About Damn Delicious®
Damn Delicious® was simply a hobby, but now it’s my full-time job.
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 14 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. 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.
Damn Delicious® is a registered trademark of Chungah Rhee.
Love it!!
My first time on your site and YOU ARE SO ADORBALE! I can’t wait to try your “Damn Delicious” recipes! Everything looks absolutely scrumptious. Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. I pray for blessings and love for your family.
I just found you today while doing some research for my own floundering page: malechealthfitness.com and facebook @MHF4U . I am in awe at the value, flow and integrations you have. I am gonna be studying your page and processes more to hopefully become better at this craft. Thank you!
Oh Congrats! You are a fabulous family. This is my first time to site and I would like to thank you for a successful dinner tonight. 100% thumbs up & compliments. Look forward to seeing your pics from the happy day coming up! Love those scarfs. Have a lovely and memorable wedding day!
Butters and Cartman are adorable and your recipes are fantastic! I see that you and Ben are due to be married on 6/20/2020 and, well, just want to wish you the very best! It’s been quite a crazy few months and perhaps you’ve had to modify your plans…or maybe not. Anyway, I just simply wanted to wish you the best and, hey, while I’m here, thank you for sharing so many amazing recipes. One of our favorites is the sesame ginger salmon. I am making it tonight and need to get that salmon in the marinade, so I’ll sign off here. Best wishes! Laura
Hi! I have loved your recipes / site for about a year now. While on our last Zoom meeting (“new normal” work meeting), my colleague and I discovered we both are fans! We sent the link to our third colleague, and then talked about recipes for the last half hour of our meeting 😉
Just wanted to let you know in case your ears were burning.
Best,
Ellen
I absolutely LOVE this website – make your recipes ALL the time. Your chili and chicken chili and Asian recipes are amazing. I I have a 20 year old and 8 year old – picky eaters – and they always love your food! I just conquered stage 4 cancer and love how healthy your food is! Best wishes on your wedding – I am so sorry COVId may have put a dent in plans.
all the best,

Hi there, I’m writing from Ottawa Canada. I love your site and your recipes . Tonight we are having your Korean beef with zucchini noodles. Your site is my go -to for ideas. I’m always telling my girlfriends and friends from work to check it out. With the corona on , I try to go to grocery store once a week. I literally sit down Sunday morning and scroll through damn delicious and plan my meals for the wk, write my list them head out to store. Speaking of corona….I just now read your little bio and wanted to write and say I hope you guys are healthy in Chicago and good luck with June wedding , I hope you guys will be able to pull off some sort of wedding , just think…regardless it’ll be a grand story to tell the grandkids one day. Take care and thanks for your wonderful food….heather
Went looking for a ribs recipe for the InstaPot and found your site!!
What a wonderful find.
Thank you!!!
Hi Chungah… your sheet pan shrimp boil was AMAZING! I prepared it for friends weeks before sheltering in place. Everyone requested the recipe, which I immediately shared. I’m hoping to share your recipe in a monthly article I write, and my compliance department has requested I secure permission from you to include your website, and post the recipe and picture. I can send you the article if you’d like to read it. It goes to all households in Montclair, which is a district in Oakland, CA. I’m a loan officer, who happens to cook, so this month I’d like to share one of my favorite recipe finds. Oh, & congratulations, and yes those two pups are definitely adorable. Hopefully the shelter place will not postpone your wedding plans. Thanks kindly for your consideration. Here’s the magazine website… http://www.montclairmagazine.com/
Your recipes look delicious, can’t wait to try a few. OH & Congrats in June & for the cutetest groomsmen EVER!!! I am a widow & my family is scattered, but when I cook I like to cook for my friends & co workers…Congrats on your web too, I’m glad to hear yet another success story…God bless, be well & stay safe…
Just found your blog. Love it. Are you still on for the 6.20.20 wedding or is that on hold until the Coronavirus is under control? Best wishes for whatever you decide. Your Corgis are adorable!

Congrats on the engagement! Long time follower, I love your recipes and books. I live in Chicago, hope you are enjoying it! Wish you luck on the wedding especially with everything that is currently going on.
Hello, congratulations on a great plan, I just looked at your Tater tot recipe, and it calls for Russets. I think I know why,, as I am in the middle of China now and have not found them here, I may get them online , but tried some what I call new potatoes, a whiter skin. these new potatoes seem to have a lot of water. I got them done okay, but had to squeeze them even after pressing the water out. added more flour to help them firm better, I did not boil , just peeled and grated.. Thoughts?
