gochujang cauliflower tacos + a little life update! 💃🏻
but first, taco details: homemade blue corn tortillas with a ginger-sesame-yuzu slaw, pickled onions, scallion cashew cream, and gochujang glazed crispy cauliflower! Finished off with fresh cilantro and sesame seeds.
Sharing the recipe for these tacos on my website! Details on www.thefoodietakesflight.com! Direct link is also in my bio @thefoodietakesflight 🧡
Now on the life update: I realized I’ve never really posted much about this NYC chapter. I’ve been in New York since June of this year to start culinary school, which has always been a dream (on top of living in nyc, even for a bit). I’m taking the plant-based culinary arts program over at @iceculinary and just finished the classroom portion of the program. Then just the other week, I started my externship at abcV, a vegetarian restaurant in the city.
I feel I’ve been more disconnected from the world of social media the past few weeks, and months because I came here with main goal of learning and also experiencing life in a different city, which meant more time away from my screens. Daily 7am classes also challenged my sleep schedule, but somehow I managed! I also haven’t been shooting much content as I normally would back home. It hasn’t been a priority, but I still do cook regularly and even more now that I have access to lots of different ingredients.
The past few months have been amazing. I’ve been soaking up everything here—from the food, the sights, and the people. I haven’t really had much time to post because I feel my days have been so busy and can sometimes be overwhelming but I’m definitely enjoying every bit of it. Also making the most of it before I head back home to the Philippines next year.
Thanks for still being here and even reading my caption up to this point. Sending lotsa hugs 🤗
