"The Inflation Reduction Act, the Midterm Election, and YOU" Please join us to hear from special guest speaker RL Miller from Climate Hawks Vote. One of the most important climate actions we can take is to vote for candidates who, regardless of their political affiliations, understand and accept the science behind climate change and are willing to make mitigating it their top priority. In this talk, we will learn about a resource that will help us evaluate how politicians rank in their commitment to fighting the climate crisis, protecting the environment, and ensuring environmental justice. We will also examine the intersection of climate politics and policy, learn more about the Inflation Reduction Act, and gain insights into the midterm election. There will be time for questions from the audience. While there is no charge for this online event you’ll need to register in advance.

If you think Korean barbecue is strictly restaurant fare, thing again. Guest chef Grace Park, founder of Crazy Korean Cooking, is here to prove that Korean barbecue isn’t just possible at home—it’s dead simple and truly fun. Grace will teach you her two favorite proteins for Korean barbecue: galbi (beef short ribs) and spicy pork belly. You’ll learn why marinades are the humble heroes of Korean barbecue. These bold combinations of garlic, soy, sugar, rice wine and fermented chili paste impart big flavor to meat—especially because you’ll let your meat marinate for two full days. We’ll walk through the science of long marination and you’ll learn why you should never ever skip the step of patting your meat dry before grilling. Whether you grill your meat on a traditional tabletop setup or at the stove, you’ll get Grace’s pro tips on picking the right pan, keeping your meat from sticking and judging doneness with perfect accuracy. With the meats cooked and ready to go, we’ll move on to the rest of the classic Korean barbecue spread. You’ll see how easy it is to mix up a batch of ssamjang, a Korean dipping sauce that’s deeply savory and nicely spicy. Grace will walk you through the history and flavor profiles of doenjang (soybean paste) and gochujang (fermented hot pepper paste), which are two ingredients you’ll never want to be without again. And then we’ll put it all together. A crunchy lettuce leaf, a smear of ssamjang, a mound of pork belly or short ribs, and a bit of grilled kimchi: it just may be the perfect bite.
