The Pan-Asian Pantry

Everyday homestyle recipes, street-food favorites, and foundational techniques spanning East and Southeast Asian cuisines. Rooted in four years living in Seoul, prolonged travel throughout Asia, and a lifetime of cooking across Asian pantry traditions—from scratch dumpling wrappers and menbosha to crispy chicken karaage and comforting bossam.

Hi, I'm Joanne!

Living abroad has taught me how food plays an important role in making connections worldwide. I love pies, Asian food, anything made from potatoes, and wine when it comes to food.

You can learn more about me here.

I created this site to track my gastronomy adventures, record inspired recipes, and help others build meaningful (and delicious!) travel itineraries.

Cheers!
