Check it out! I’m on FoodWishes.com!
It has been one of my favorite food blogs for quite some time now and I decided to try my hand at throwing together a video for something that is extremely healthy, extremely tasty, and also viewed as extremely difficult to do. It really isn’t all that hard (just a little time consuming) and in my video I share some of my tips to chop things up real fine for an absolutely stunning tabbouleh.
I tweeted him the video a few weeks ago and told him to feel free to use it if he ever wanted to and low and behold it must have been good enough for him to feature on his blog. Gotta say, I’m pretty proud of myself!
It obviously doesn’t have the production quality that his videos have but he’s an actual Chef and the only education I’ve had is from watching Gordon Ramsay, Alton Brown and (of course) FoodWishes.com. He also has several years of experience as a culinary instructor as well as quite a few years of experience putting together cooking recipe videos.
That being said, I have been making myself tabbouleh for around 12 years (learned the recipe from my dad, who learned it from my grandmother and they’re both from Armenia) and have always prided myself on how fine I can chop up my veggies for it. In fact, when I’m really trying to be fancy I chop everything about half again as fine as I did for this video.
So for anyone coming over from FoodWishes.com, please don’t expect me to be running a food blog here. I’ll probably throw together a cooking video from time to time (and maybe Chef John will link to them again in the future!) but this was really just something I made for fun, to show my foodie friends how to make this delicious salad and to send to Chef John to see how he’d like my process. Mission accomplished!
