Cooking is one of my hobbies and I enjoy it. I often make foreign food at home, such as the pizza and sushi. My son loves it a lot

Food - Healthy and delicious food.
Hi youless, yes i cook foreign food at home every weekends since my husband loves it and we can save lot of money if we cook it at home. My husband and i love foreign foods like Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Italian and Mexican food. I personally enrolled myself in a culinary crash course just to learn on how to cook those foreign foods because i found it very interesting and i want to learn how to cook it. Now, i can easily prepare our favorite foreign food every weekends and made sure to make it more delicious and healthy.

I don't used to prepare foreign food from my home. I love to prepare all kind of food but the thing is that we need a lot of things more. We need micro oven and other food products and I am quite sure that such products quite easily av liable in our market. More over the product may cost a lot.

I can only cook pasta and pizza at home, like carbonara, spaghetti and pesto. Good for you, you can cook sushi because I haven't tried that yet.

I so want to but I can't :( I am not really into cooking but once in a while I do prepare food for me and my husband but mostly it's Filipino food (we are filipinos) but from what I understand most of the filipino dishes are variation from spanish dishes like mechado, menudo and the like. Can you consider it a foreign dish? I hope I can cook some Thai and Korean dish someday :)

I cook all different kinds of food from all over the world at home.I'm from the UK and have cooked American style food,Indian food,Chinese food and Mediterranean style dishes.I will try and cook any recipe that I think looks tasty and looks simple enough for me to be able to cook.I don't know how authentic most of these recipes have been but they have been in that style.The next recipe I am going to try is Thai green chicken curry.The picture in my recipe looks absolutely delicious.

Yes! I love learning and eating food from all over the world! Just this week, I prepared some kimchi because I love kimchi, and I don't trust buying kimchi from places here that sell or serve kimchi.

I haven't made Filipino food yet. Here I hardly see Filipino food so that I have no idea how to cook it.

Most of the food that I cook at home can be considered foreign since our dishes have a lot of either Spanish or Chinese cooking influences. I grew up with Chinese food since my Dad is Chinese and he does cook. There are just some dishes that if you serve it to me now, I would never eat. I hated the soups he made because of the spices he added. My mom is also Chinese, but she doesn't cook with strong spices. The only dishes that I can consider that is homegrown are the vegetable dishes that I make which is simply steamed or sauteed.

I love to learn about food from other countries and try to make them. A few years ago I had some shoulder problems and stayed at home a lot. I learnt then to make sushi following instructions from a TV channel.
