As an Asian who definitely has no family cookbooks to fall back on, It definitely is a project to get things written. It's a tragedy that knowledge passed down for generations get lost because inbetween generations placed no value in cooking.
- shiroiushi 2y agoThis is exactly why anything important should be written down: you can't trust random specific people to value that knowledge. Whatever it is that you value, you can't trust that your kids will value it too, and in fact, they usually don't.
