A Recipe From My Mother

When I left South Korea for England, my mother slipped a printed file of recipes she had carefully put together into my luggage. It was her way of keeping me fed, and of keeping me close.

Living far from home, I turned to those recipes whenever I missed her cooking. Of everything in that file, one dish came back to me most often: her onion dressing. Fresh, bright, and endlessly versatile, it made any meal feel familiar.

Over the years, I began adding my own touch. I introduced maesil, the Korean plum that has been cherished on Korean tables for generations. Its rounded sweetness and gentle acidity deepened the dressing and brought a harmony all of its own.

That is how my mother's recipe became mine too.

For years, I shared this dressing with family and friends. The response was always the same. This is something special. Where can I buy it?

After more than two decades of making this dressing in England, I decided it was time to share it more widely.

JUHEE is named after me, because there is no name I trust more. Every bottle carries my mother's recipe, my years of refining it, and my belief that true flavour comes from patience, tradition, and ingredients that have stood the test of time.

This is more than a salad dressing. It is a recipe passed from mother to daughter, carried across the world, and now ready for your table.
