In this episode, health and wellness expert Emma Lovewell joins Jo in the kitchen. Both Jo and Emma have family ties to Asia, so this lineup of recipes was inspired by familiar meals that remind them of their roots.They team up to make one of Jo's favorite dishes, Japchae, paired with a simple Egg Drop Soup and Yaki Gyoza (Japanese for pan-fried dumplings) served with a side of savory dipping sauce. Almond Butter Cake is for dessert, with flavor nodding to nostalgic almond cookies that Jo loved when growing up. Light in taste, this cake blends vanilla-almond flavor with a dense, honey-butter glaze that's coated in almonds for satisfying crunch.
