She is the most Irish looking native Spanish speaker who ever walked on this planet

[@csar2976]

Once I went to visit my mom, and she had visitors...and in the living room there was a red head kid playing. No one was white in the place, so I looked around wondering what this Irish kid was doing in the house. Then the kid ran to a brown lady... with very thick Spanish calling the lady mom, and speaking to her in Spanish.. I was like.. what the...

Lol!!! It's actually quite funny how genetics work. 🤣🤣🤣 I know/knew a few people that were from entirely Hispanic families and look nothing like it. But they speak fluent Spanish. I currently live in an area that is predominantly hispanic.

It’s just an Anybody Who Is Good At Cooking Thing

[@oakstrong1]

That's how I always cook outside cooking classes. Experiment with seasoning and trust your sense of smell and taste! Make mistakes! Eventually you only need to sniff the spice or herb to tell you if it will go with the food.

[@maggiem6209]

Agreed!! I'll be making dinner up on the fly and my boyfriend will come investigate with a spice and I'll go, "No! Not that one! It smells wrong! Shoo!"

as someone from a middle-class Ukrainian family, unless the product smells or tastes really bad, it's good. i remember how my grandma used to take expired milk and turn it into fermented/soured milk. i loved that stuff

Im with you on everything but the fermented foods hard pass

[@Erick_Cuevas]

​@IvanGoldBit In the "olden days" (1800s to early 1900s), soured milk was basically Buttermilk. Different ways of naming a totally normal thing

[@tammyboykin5285]

I can tell when milk is going bad ..it tastes normal.but smells funny that usually means in a day or 2 it will taste sour lol

[@alvinmaruti9394]

The fermented/soured milk is pretty common where I grew up. We keep the milk in gourds when it starts to go bad and have a special stick for churning. Absolutely delicious.

[@Musical_Pigeon]

I have white grandparents and a Mexican step mom who's been in my life since I was very young. My grandparents' thing was that whoever cooked didn't have to clean up, unless I was the one to cook then it was whoever cooked cleans up. When I started going with my step mom and my dad to make Tamales and stuff with my step aunt (who I later found out is actually my step grandma), it became a go sit in the living room and wait until we're done. Then don't touch the dirty dishes, we don't want you to break them.

[@TheElizabethEwing]

Definitely relate to measuring ingredients with your heart, especially if it’s a recipe I’ve created for myself. It’s really hard to give people any recipes that I cook because I don’t have specific measurements, I just know what goes in it

[@SugarandSarcasm]

Sometimes I forget what’s in it, so things tend to be slightly different whenever I make them unless I write down a list of ingredients at the least

[@thechillhacker]

Yeah, I don't really do recipes. More "yeah I have these things, it needs some more... ah, that'll work!". Even when I plan out a meal i pretty much pick a meat and then just kinda go from there

[@-.SpaceNoah.-]

My grandpa never measured when he cooked, it always ended up being spicy, strong, or too sweet, depending on what type of food. Some of my family wouldn't be able to eat his guisos or tucos bc of that but I always liked them. He died of cancer three days after my birthday and one of the things I instantly noticed while he was still here was that his food wasn't spicy or strong anymore, it broke my heart. I'm sorry if I'm ruining the mood but I just want to tell you that whenever you think "damn, (x family member) made this too spicy" and feel like not eating anymore, remember that this granddaughter misses that food a lot and maybe you will too. Enjoy it and appreciate it bc once they are gone, even while still alive, it burns more than that food you once found too spicy.

Carajo!", y luego ella volteaba las tortillas con la mano. Mi tía me sacaba a empujones de la cocina si ella estaba cocinando, "Quítate que me desconcentras!", o sólo, "Quítate! Quítate! Quítate!", además de tener sus "recetas secretas". Al terminar de cocinar, mi madre se quejaba de que nadie la ayudaba a lavar los 900 trastes engrasados que utilizó para hacer agua de limón.
