Today on the YouTube channel, I’m sharing some research I’ve done on the oldest languages of Europe. For years I’ve been told that Euskara, the Basque language, is the oldest living language in Europe, but I wanted to investigate whether that’s true.
What I found is that it’s a complicated question with no simple answers!
I asked my followers recently on Instagram to name their favorite Basque restaurants in the United States. We’ve been talking a lot about Basque food over there, so I was curious to know where people like to eat.
And with over 100 comments on the post, it looks like you guys are passionate about this topic!
Today on the YouTube channel, I’m making a rabbit stew recipe from the famous Noriega Hotel, a Basque boardinghouse and restaurant in Bakersfield, California. They recently announced they’re closing their doors for good, so that got me hunting around my mom’s Basque cookbooks looking for some of their recipes.
Today on the YouTube channel, I’m sharing a cooking video all about the Basque burnt cheesecake. This dessert out of Donostia-San Sebastian in the Basque Country is a play on the New York cheesecake. The biggest differences? This cheesecake is baked in a super hot oven to give it a burnt look on top and doesn’t have a crust. It’s soft and gooey on the inside, almost like a creme caramel.
