    My dad is Mexican and his mother taught my mom to make many Mexican dishes. The one dish I never learned to make was Mexican rice. Mom passed away a long time ago. I just kept looking for the way I remembered her making it. When I came across your video, I knew this was it. Thanks so much!

    I love how raw and real your videos are! You're not pretentious, and I feel like I'm in the kitchen with you! Everyone should know how to cook. Keep up the great work.

    I've been on a mission to perfect my Mexican Rice recipe and my cooking technique for the last few months. I've probably watched every video on UA-cam on the subject, no joke. Your recipe(s) and video are by far my favorite. You have a great personality and an ease about you, you seem like a natural teatcher. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank You for your Flour tortilla video. I know make homemade flour tortillas for every meal. Just the other day it was cold and my kids came home from school and I asked them what they wanted for snack and they said your homemade flour tortillas with butter!! It made me feel so good. My mom passed away a few years ago and I just wish I had paid more attention. So now I'm making sure I pass these traditions down to my children. It's an art thats being lost. So Thank You. We would love to see more cooking videos. Especially Frijoles.

    I'm making some tortillas right now (their resting) so I haven't seen you in a while and looked you up and you are the only one that uses 3 cups of water and THAT IS PROBABLY why I have had such dry and uncooked rice. THANK YOU SO MUCH tomorrow I'm making some good old Mexican rice with 3 cups of water. Hey girl, spend more time in the kitchen WITH THE CAMRA ROLLING. See you soon I hope.

    Your rice looks great and you've done a great job with the video. My point is not to be negative. I just ask you please not to pour grease down the sink. It will eventually clog your pipes and is very bad for the city system as well as it also clogs the outside pipes. I keep a coffee can and pour off all oil into the can then throw it away when full. Since so much coffee comes in bags now it's harder to get coffee cans so I recently saved & used glass jars - any glass jar with a lid. Thanks for the video.
