I too cook food from around the world 🌎. I just never took the time for video and editing. I post mine on Facebook with the history of the country, history of the ingredients, step for step directions in each photo, and place the flags next to the dish. Also, doing the 22 Republics within the Russian Federation 🇷🇺, countries within China 🇨🇳, and regional differences within Australia 🇦🇺. It's simply the love for cuisines around the world. I'm in Houston.

Hey there! Good to connect here and elsewhere!
