    Traditional is fine when its a good tradition.

    Now to preface this I am very white, but my whole life Ive heard from people that “My great grandmother brought this recipe over with her on the boat” and I have to bite my tongue not to say “Yeah but could she cook?” In a rural town of 50 families there has to be one woman who is the worst cook in town and theres a non zero chance it was her.

    I am absolutely the best cook in my extended family on both sides because I read, research, watch, practice technique and experiment.
