Yesterday I decided to attempt crème brûlée and I am NAHT disappointed. I used the @markbittman recipe and it is literally 5 ingredients (I added a 6th): heavy cream, eggs, vanilla, salt, and sugar. I added lemon zest because I love a light citrus flavor in my dessert (I love citrus period). **PRO-TIP: Take your lactaid pills my friends, because I forgot and my tummy wasn’t happy** .

I always said that I am not a dessert person, that I love savory etc etc. I think this is still true. If anything, I have distilled my disinterest in dessert to just not liking super sweet and sugary items. This quarantine time has me taking risks in the kitchen, and giving desserts another shot overall! Now I have desserts for the week 💁🏽♀️

One of my favorite things about moderating @afreats_inc podcast (besides for eating for 4 hours straight 😋) is the pure joy and excitement that radiates off of our featured chefs/home cooks/culinary artists/artists. This cake was made by @kakevent and was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I am constantly processing and evaluating things through the lens of #equity . Breaking into the culinary industry is difficult to begin with, let alone if you are a black or nonblack person of color - and a femme identifying, non-binary person. Mainstream Food shows are constantly white washing or appropriating foods from black and brown countries, without batting an eye. The #Afreats podcast literally gives black and nonblack poc a platform to display their skills, sell plates, and get paid directly for their labor - with cash money! Not just exposure! .

We talk family, culture, love, pain, joy, sensuality - all things that tie directly back to food and eating. Episode 2 “Manwich” is steaming on #YouTube and #spotify right now! .
