Initiative // Let's talk about food

I saw that in the community there is an initiative related to food and I immediately thought I should participate, eating is perhaps one of my favorite hobbies and it is also a mandatory activity as far as going out for a walk is concerned, there is not a week in which we do not go out to eat something regardless of the price, sometimes these are just simple hot dogs, but yes or yes we try to eat something on the street. In my blog I have made many reviews of places where I have gone out to eat both here in Venezuela and in Peru, I have also shared some recipes, although to a lesser extent since I do not consider myself a great cook.

So, the initiative invites us to review channels or videos related to food which I think is perfect for my first post in this community which I have seen grow since it was created, it seems to me that the work of moderation is exemplary and that is seen in the interesting participation in the community feed despite the short time it has been created, I know firsthand that it is not an easy job, but I think they are on the right track, these initiatives are proof of that.

Let me introduce you to the YouTube channel “Country Life Vlog”, in this one we don't necessarily see food related content, but it is an element that we always see included for at least a few minutes. In this channel we can observe people (usually a man and a woman) from a rural area of Azerbaijan, a country that for me is quite exotic. These people are doing their daily chores in the country life, while the man is working the land, farming and heavy work, the woman is preparing everything for breakfast, lunch or dinner and that's where the food takes center stage in the content of the channel.

In the following two videos you can see how the lady in charge of the kitchen makes hamburgers and pizza, I chose these two elements as they are the most popular, but believe me there are more advanced recipes in preparation. It is wonderful to see the final result contrasted with the environment and the scenario in which they live, it looks like a fairy tale.

These people also cook elements that will serve to complement some meals, for example, in the following video you will see how they massively make tomato paste, which according to the amount they make, will be enough for many months, and well, the best of all is that the ingredients are completely natural and from their own garden.

What do I like about this channel?, well, first of all I could tell you that I really like the way the content is presented, the audio and video are top quality and that immediately generates a sense of relaxation because the scenery is dreamy and the practicality with which these people do things is mesmerizing, also, the ambient sound is completely clean, so we can hear the wind, trees, animals and the sound of food while cooking.

Another thing that strikes me about this channel is the mastery with which the lady makes the different recipes, everything is done with great hygiene and aesthetics, she uses natural ingredients from her own garden (except for the flour, sugar, salt, oil, etc.) and is able to make recipes not only from her country, but also food from all cultures. It makes my mouth water every time I see this lady cooking, it is impressive the final result of her meals after she prepared absolutely everything, nothing is precooked or bought in the supermarket, even the bread is made by herself. So I invite you to visit this channel, believe me you will find very interesting things about food and life in the countryside.
