Tastes that cross borders

Preface I haven’t been a lifelong enthusiast of gastronomy. That all changed when I realized that cooking is far more than just the act of preparing food. Cooking is about gathering loved ones around the warmth of the kitchen, sharing stories, and creating memories. For me, it’s about listening to the thoughts of those beside you without judgment. Cooking is an act of love and care, a gesture of thoughtfulness, and the acceptance that not everyone will be pleased, yet you continue to give your best. It is with great honor that I contribute to this recipe book, a collection that celebrates the rich culinary traditions from around the world. I am deeply thankful to TP for this invitation and feel truly blessed to be part of something so meaningful. From the bottom of my heart, I hope this book brings you countless unforgettable moments shared with friends and family, creating cherished memories around the table.
