Hi again @Amy Z! Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely check it out soon. Anything and everything is welcome!

The best part of this community is that many of us are people who are simply passionate about food, food history, travel, culture, and so many other interesting topics. Also as you may have noticed, I moved the conversation to our Culinary Culture group so we can continue this topic here

This is in the Jerez area, so I am not surprised at its occurrence, but perhaps a bit surprised it took so long for it to rise to fame!

Hi Andrea, I love Flavorful Origins too! They are now a team that produces a variety of high quality food documentaries that are very popular in China, but unfortunately not all of them are available in English overseas. I also recommend this book: https://www.amazon.com/Sharks-Fin-Sichuan-Pepper-Sweet-Sour/dp/0393332888. I think this as close as it can get for a non-Chinese to understand Chinese food. The author is a good friend of the producer of Flavorful Origins. I think she appeared in one of his documentaries! Also, I am new to this community. I am not an ambassador, or a business owner. I am just someone who constantly read and watch about food and food history. How can I contribute? Obviously I know more about Chinese cuisine than i do with other cuisine. Would is it that you (or people you know) most want to know about Chinese food? I am happy to write about anything people are interested in.

Oooh and we just shared a recipe for this for our upcoming Wellness Drinks Around the World e-booklet

In Spain, horchata comes from chufa, a tuber packed with nutrients like fiber and iron. And while chufa (tiger nuts in English) have gained fame as a superfood in recent years, Valencians have been using these tasty tubers since the 12th Century to make their emblematic "white gold' super-drink" that is also dairy and gluten-free.

“Known as the "Hebridean Baker", Coinneach MacLeod is an unlikely TikTok sensation who is bringing the best of the islands' culture to the world.” Even though I have my reservations about some of the food trends that TikTok has viralized I thought this was super cool https://bbc.in/36SF4r3 Feeds into another discussion, but what do you all think about the presence of the platform in preserving food traditions? Does it do more harm than good in preserving culinary traditions? (i’m thinking along the lines of the baked feta pasta craze, Dalgona coffee etc.)

Hi everyone! I stumbled across this article on CN Traveler – I think its an awesome example of how immigrants cuisine can enrich local food culture and the idea that a destination’s culinary traditions can often times be fluid and multifaceted – https://www.cntraveler.com/story/tahitian-chinese-food Has anyone here tried Tahitian-Chinese food yet?

Haven't tried it but now I really want to! Thanks for sharing
