Damn Bryan is daddy asf
Literally was at a wedding at this center almost a month and a half ago, they served a variation of Paella during the dinner, and I deeply regret not going back for seconds.
Loved this! Nice they kept the culture alive. Thanks!
Don't let the Spanish know you're putting chorizo in the paella.
Bryan! I enjoy seeing you on Cooks Country! Wish i could have met you while you were here in Boise…could have had some paella & croquetas with you! Must come back for the Festival and bring the ladies! Great video….
Oh man I want one of those giant paella pans
Hey y'all only showed that Basque Auronomous Community on that map! The Basque country is almost three times that size!
Wonderful episode of this Boise Basque neighbourhood visit. Feeling really heartfelt to see such lovely people honouring their unique heritage & culture. Thank you.
The Basques have been in the Americas since the early 1100s in the Canadian Maritimes … with the Templar Fleet, and French and Portuguese Basques came along with French and Portuguese Templars coming to the Americas.
Deep fried bechamel sauce dumplings !
❤Love the video! Thanks for the tip of the colander with the beaten eggs while making croquetas, very useful😊
Wonder if the Boise Basques have the tradition of growing foods that they pick early in the spring and prepare special dishes, like the tiny onion tops? Or maybe Idaho's climate is too unforgiving in early spring?
6 hour drive from Portland. Not bad. Might visit. I have a lot to learn from the Basque people. Now to find the Catalonian people out here.
thanks Bryan!!
Another great episode of this series!
Thank you for this great segment!!! It's so wonderful seeing this unique and colorful culture highlighted! Those of us here in Boise area proud of our Basque community!
My husband and I took a cooking class at the Basque Market in February 2023. It was a fantastic experience and the food amazing!
Really enjoy Bryan's reports on the varied and unique foods he finds across the country.
Its official, Brian has triggered an intense feeling of jealousy in me! Every trip you take it gets worse!
👊🏻💪🏻👨🏼🍳
