PuertoRicanMeals.com was created with the intention of preserving our Puerto Rican culture for generations. The goal of the PuertoRicanMeals.com - Cocinando Con Mami cooking library was to capture the rich traditions of days gone by and sharing them with mainland Puerto Ricans. If you were fortunate to live in Puerto Rico and know the sites and sounds, this cooking library will bring back many memories. If you were born and raised in the mainland US, this is your opportunity to gain some insight about your cultures rich tradition. The cooking videos include visual journeys to Puerto Rico, which are accompanied with a Cuatro and Spanish guitar. These extras were designed to capture the essence (SABOR) of Puerto Rico while you prepare the meals.
Our lives evolve around rich ethnic traditions and music, which is strongly linked by the food we prepare and eat. Almost everyone can relate to a childhood moment when the Puerto Rican Rice and Beans, served with whatever else, was at its finest. Typically, we had our Mami preparing our food in those precious moments. This is why we felt that it was important to have Mercedes Pagan (Mami), be the guide and teacher on how to cook traditional homestyle Puerto Rican food. The cooking instructions were designed for the novice and visual learner.
We get plenty of feedback from customers about our product. One of our favorites is where a Puerto Rican female customer, born in the mainland US, has old school parents that refused to eat her GRINGO food. They would come by to visit, but never eat at her home. This went on for years. She purchased the Cocinando Con Mami 10 DVD Box Set and prepared meals for her family. Finally she built up the confidence to invite her parents over for dinner and surprised them with some old school Arroz con Gandules and Chuleta Fritas. How’s that for SABOR con SALSA! This can happen for you too.
Response to the Cocinando Con Mami Puerto Rican library has been positive and overwhelming. Making the Pilón and Tostonera a part of you life!
