Evan's Cooking Passion -"Farfalle Alla Vodka" This is my first video for my "passion series," where I share my love for food and what it means to me. Come hang out while I cook one of my favorite recipes, "Farfalle Alla Vodka," and tell the story about how I fell in love with food and cooking.
When I was 13, I went to a korean restaurant for the first time. This one meal sparked my passion for ethnic and cultural foods from around the world. There's something about food that connects me to other cultures that I wouldn't otherwise. And, hell, I just like it.
Let me share with you one of the things in life I'm most passionate about. There's something about cooking that just gets me out of my head. It gives me something to focus on. And, hey, at the end of the day, you get a pretty good reward. That is, if you make it well. I'm not sure where my love of food and cooking came from. Well, it wasn't from my mom. She just cooked out of necessity. Perhaps being from Chicago with a rich culture of cuisine, like deep dish pizza. But it wasn't until I was 13 and went with my dad to a korean restaurant for the first time, I didn't really know what I was getting myself into.
I thought it was maybe just something like chinese, but there were so many unique flavors I never had, like kimchi or bibimbap. I was absolutely blown away. It was the best meal I ever had. This one meal sparked my passion for ethnic and cultural foods from around the world. I had to know more about them. I needed to know how to make them myself so I could eat them well, as much as possible. There's something about food that connects me to other cultures that I wouldn't otherwise. But most importantly, it connects me to myself.
And, h***, I just like it. Our channel.
