Episode Description

In this inaugural episode of Everyday Cooks Recipe Club, Kelly and Stephanie head into the kitchen with a bright, zesty recipe from Nini Nguyen’s cookbook Dac Biet. Stephanie chose lemongrass-marinated pork chops.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Why we chose this recipe
• What it was like shopping for fresh lemongrass and the other key ingredients
• How each of us prepared the pork chops (and where we improvised!)
• Our honest thoughts on flavor, texture, and whether it’s worth making again

If you’ve ever been curious about cooking with lemongrass or you’re just looking for a fresh twist on pork chops, you’ll want to cook along with us this month!

The full recipe can be found in Nini Nguyen’s cookbook Dac Biet. We highly recommend checking it out anywhere books are sold.
