“My Korean forefather’s love of pickling is rivaled only by Southerner’s love of pickling. Barbecue, with its intricate techniques of marinades and rubs, is the backbone of both cuisines.” So begins Edward Lee’s drool-worthy new cookbook. This Korean-American chef lives in Kentucky and marries the best of both cuisines, with recipes like Tamarind-Strawberry Glazed Ham, Kimchi Poutine and Rice Bowl with Tuna and Pork Rinds.
Smoke and Pickles, Edward Lee, $35.

Dressing, $7 each, littlecreekdressing.com.
