FOOD CURATED: Erin Evenson: A Competitive Home Cook, 150 Cod Tongues & The Perfect Bite

Meet, Erin Evenson, a legal assistant for an international law firm by day, and an award-winning competitive home cook by nights and weekends in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. Erin is a self-proclaimed "food dork". She buries her nose in cookbooks and happily spends 100% of her spare time day-dreaming, crafting and developing recipes to compete with. But not just any recipes, her specialty is giving dishes a New Nordic, Scandinavian twist -- adding a little love and respect for her family's heritage into every main stage battle, hoping to expose more people to a cuisine she's passionate about. Erin will compete this weekend at the Food Experiments National Championship in Brooklyn, pitting competition-craving home cooks from across the country against each other for an all out "perfect bite" cook-off.

What a great profile of someone who is passionate about her food and her heritage and strives to create a recollection. We live in the moment, but we also live in memories. This is a great little mini documentary. Loved it. Great job! Thanks so much for sharing. Also thanks for subbing me! I subbed you back. Great quality stuff. Wish my vids looked half this good. Noreen : )

Awesome! She's a magician! TG there are folks out there as interested as her to spend the time to create stuff like that - which would otherwise be completely forgotten in our culture. Kudos!

@cheskydivision Lol, that was random. I dont think she cares what you think is "practical" or not :P

oh my cod

[cheskydivision]

I don't think it is practical to cook while wearing things on your wrists while cooking... bare hands and lower arms makes more sense. Food looks good.
