Videos and articles document and preserve food traditions and practices. In each multimedia showcase community members share about their culture, cuisine and their own personal history. Viewers learn firsthand about the many diverse communities that make the Twin Cities a vibrant place, and seek out experiences with and in the featured community. Provided recipes also give viewers the chance to make dishes in their own homes. Relish gives featured participants a voice and increases exposure for their cuisine, their business and/or their community.

Praise from Chefs appearing on Relish : Feedback from my episode was incredible! The episode was received so, so well.

Relish was one of the opportunities that thrusted me into the spotlight….an unusual place for an introverted baker.

The story of Potica was told in an authentic way and brought light to the heritage of the Iron Range.

Viewer feedback about Relish : Relish. GREAT show; fascinating people of different cultures. I want to make ALL of that food. Or I want to go to a restaurant where I can get these [interesting] tasty dishes. YUM Relish , I like the intimate nature of the show with the host cooking with a different chef and their positive approach to different cultures.

Relish has been a real joy. It is short, has opened our eyes to what is out there in MN food scene.

Relish , always interesting to learn about different cultures and their food.

Love Relish so much. It's local, bite-sized, and I always learn something new (it's history and culture!). Yia's warmth and energy shine through every episode.

Relish ! Fun and educational and warm and engaging. Lifts up diverse stories and voices.

Relish --great programming that is better than any Food Network show.
