One of the most recognizable and distinguishing factors about a culture or community is the language spoken by its members. However, languages are often shared by broad communities across the world thanks to the empires of previous centuries. Yes, dialects exist and there is variation among the speakers of these languages, but the truest unique quality of a given culture is often its food.
Food and cooking have been integral parts of what make a culture, and passing those traditions on to younger generations help keep the culture alive. Learning from one's family can provide a lifetime of memories, skills, and a sense of belonging.
This sentiment is the reason this blog will include many recipes, pictures, and food related posts. Sharing food is the easiest way to share a culture. Also, I really really like food. =)
