      Galicia is well known for its ‘potaje gallego’, of course. Asturias for its deservedly revered ‘fabada asturiana’. Finally, wine country has its ‘lentejas a la riojana’ as well as the bottled stuff. I’m not sure how extensively you have travelled in the Iberian peninsula having just discovered your channel.

    Found your channel a few days ago looking up bourride because I remembered Floyd always championed it. You've gotten me in the kitchen a few times already this week, I appreciate it.
    I must say your approach is very reminiscent of Floyd's, he wasn't one for measuring either or adhering to a single cooking dogma. You could be the next!
    Your content is astonishingly high quality for the traction you have - I agree with others that have said as much. I suppose provincial cooking is somewhat of a niche, but just the cinematography and and scripting and quality/authenticity of the cooking should be enough. I say just keep at it. I'll be watching as long as you do!
