Potato Latkes and Kimchi Jjigae
Season 6
Episode 604
Some recipes are passed down at the kitchen table or in family restaurants, like at Cecil's Deli and Restaurant where they make Jewish-style potato latkes. But for others, like Korean Adoptee Anna Luster, cooking kimchi jjigae (stew) is about keeping food memories alive when far from home—creating new traditions that will last for generations.
