This might be the end of Gourmet Makes, but it’s not the end of new Claire content for us! Can’t wait to see what all she’s working on!

A list of my favorite POC/international cooking channels, if you no longer want to support Bon Appetit:

De Mi Rancho A Tu Cocina: an an abuela from Michuacan shows you how to make DELICIOUS rancho food and occasionally shows you scenes from around the rancho.

Doña Lupita: Another abuela, this time from Guerrero, making incredible-looking food over a comal

Simply Mamá Cooks: Tejano woman with a Korean-American husband makes recipes from both cultures, great for classic easy-to-make weeknight comfort food recipes, too

Li Ziqi: a real-life Disney princess from Sichuan who shows you how to make sauce with duck egg yolks, starting with hatching the ducks that lay the eggs

Dianxi Ziaoge:  another Chinese farm girl, she shows you her idyllic life in rural Yunnan as she makes food with her HUGE RIDICULOUS FUFFYBOI, Dawang, often joining her on adventures

Wild Girl: Yet another Chinese farm girl, this time from Guizhou, who has a little bit more of an emphasis on cooking with food foraged from her gorgeous surroundings

Catch The Sea Official: A young woman living in the fishing city of Rizhao, foraging her own seafood and then cooking it up. I could watch her squeeze the water out of cat’s eye turban snails all day.

Cooking with Sros, Sros Yummy Cooking Vlog: Sros makes delicious Cambodian food with a warm, sunny personality and a great accent!

Am Thuc Me Lam: A son who videos his mother farming and cooking in rural Vietnam

Traditional Me: Young woman in rural Sri Lanka lives with her grandmother and brother, makes incredible looking food set to jaunty music with lush scenery

Village Cooking Channel: Five VERY ENTHUSIASTIC Tamil men make large batches of food for their local old age home.

Veg Village Food: Pakistani granny makes huge batches of vegetarian food for local needy children. 

Desi Food Recipes: Soothing Indian granny shows you how to make classic Desi dishes in non-giant size proportions

Maangchi: The Julia Child of Korean food, everyone fucking loves Maangchi

Jun’s Kitchen: Japanese guy makes food with his cats, what’s not to love?

Black Lives Matter.

In the wake of everything happening this past week, it hasn’t felt right to get on here and post photos of Claire like everything is fine when everything is not fine. There needs to be justice for George Floyd. There needs to be justice for Breonna Taylor. We need to rebuild our societal structures from the ground up to root out the systemic racism that permeates them. We need to direct funding to education and mental health rather than arming police. When BIPOC speak about the harsh realities they face, we need to listen to them and support them and work towards equality. We need to commit to be better. We need to commit to change.

In keeping with this blog’s theme, if y’all are interested in supporting the organizations that members of the Test Kitchen are donating to, here’s a list:

Sohla, Andy, Brad, Rick, and Delany: NAACP – donate here

Delany: Philadelphia Black Giving Circle – donate here

Claire: Brooklyn Community Bail Fund – donate here

Chris and Gaby: ACLU – donate here

Priya and Amiel: Campaign Zero – donate here

Priya: The Bail Project – donate here

Molly: NAMI’s Black/African American focus – donate here

Christina: Make the Road New York – donate here

I know things are rough for a lot of folks financially, so if y’all aren’t able to monetarily support, then please pass this post around! Donations keep organizations like these, and so many others, able to do their good work. In these times, that work is especially vital.

The news that came out today about how BA treats their BIPOC staff is abhorrent and revolting. I will no longer continue to support Condé Nast including its subsidiaries until reparations are made to the injured parties and the demands for equal pay are met. I hope you will consider doing the same and stand in solidarity with the BIPOC employees and those demanding equality.
