Seg. 1: Twist On A Hot Sauce Recipe That Traveled From Korea to Kansas. Seg. 2: Food Critics.

c/o Born With Seoul

 Segment 1: Twist on a Korean hot sauce available throughout the Kansas City region.

Angela Hong grew up watching her mom make the Korean hot sauce, Gochuchang. As an adult, she started making it for her family, but had to adjust to accommodate her daughter's food allergy. Today, that recipe adjustment has made it into bottles and onto shelves around the city. 

Segment 2: Food Critics

Kansas City is more than just barbecue, and KCUR's Food Critics set out to prove that. Today, they talked about the most delectable sauces for dipping, drizzling, and dolloping. 

People don't make cameos in news stories; the human story is the story, with characters affected by news events, not defined by them. As a columnist and podcaster, I want to acknowledge what it feels like to live through this time in Kansas City, one vantage point at a time. Together, these weekly vignettes form a collage of daily life in Kansas City as it changes in some ways, and stubbornly resists change in others.
