Book Synopsis



New York Times bestseller

Learn Korean cooking alongside social media star Sarah Ahn as her umma passes down 100+ family recipes and decades' worth of kitchen wisdom.

Sarah Ahn's viral food videos of her and her mom have captivated millions of viewers with their behind-the-scenes look at Korean cooking and multigenerational home life. This collaboration is now a must-have cookbook blending the emotional intimacy of Crying in H Mart with practical culinary advice from Nam Soon's lifetime of kitchen experience. The recipes are framed by mother-daughter conversations that are funny, profound, and universally relatable--plus all the food is backed by the recipe-testing power of America's Test Kitchen.

  • Thorough ingredient guide: Walk through a Korean grocery store with a Korean umma for in-depth guidance on what pantry ingredients and fresh produce and protein to buy.
  • Recipes both traditional and contemporary: Learn to make everything from simple banchan, a variety of kimchi, and foundational stews to an assortment of yasik (midnight snacks) and inventive desserts.
  • Kitchen wisdom from mother to daughter: Shared confidences open a window onto a level of family intimacy rarely seen in cookbooks.

The Ahns understand that when generations come together in the kitchen, so much is shared: not only food, but also knowledge, advice, family history, and love.

Tin - 26 days ago, Verified purchaser
“Umma” is so much more than just a cookbook—it’s a heartfelt tribute to love, family, and tradition. You can feel the deep care and emotion poured into every page, from the beautifully told stories to the stunning photography. It’s not just about recipes; it’s about connection and memory, and at times, it even brought me to tears. This book is truly a labor of love, and I’m so grateful to have experienced it.
