Hey Tere, glad you liked that educational experience. I think I may reach to some food bloggers and see if there's any way to collaborate. And I agree with gfron1 and heidih that being as easy as possible is the biggest key.

Thanks for your encouraging words, gfron1. I see what you I mean about being a taker and hopefully can counter that a bit - I just discovered the Beautiful Cookbooks series. You all perhaps have already heard or gone through them, but the series is new to me and seems like a good resource. Askinosie is a cool shop with an impressive background information section. And a trading card sounds fun. I'm inspired by Humans of New York and will see whether I can create a food version of that. There's certainly a ton of information here and regional threads sound a like a good place to start. I'm taking it in slowly.

Oh, wow. That's a great resource. Thanks Linda!

Thanks so much Deryn! I actually do not have customers as of yet and am still exploring possible fits. I mentioned Blue Apron as I may try to build something somewhat similar but wanted to see whether my ideas make sense. And you're very much right regarding the customer base. I'll try to reach to those who are more new to cooking and certain foods and perhaps want to learn. Thanks again for your considered and detailed thoughts!

I've removed the demo culture card as it is not good enough yet.

Thanks Deryn! Sorry to bother everyone regarding the cooking question. I'll comb through the threads to learn more about everyone's ethnic food preferences. I'd be curious, though, whether others on this forum would be interested receiving the culture aspect (e.g. food stories from chefs and other foodies, facts about the dish and region, etc.). If this type of question doesn't make sense for EGullet, I really apologize and please disregard this message.

Hi All, I'm working on a Blue Apron (meal kits) for ethnic dishes rooted in food stories by people who have had them. I'd also like to add a culture component such as regional facts, postcard-like photos and a Spotify playlist. In my own experience, I've always had a hard time finding authentic, tasty food and usually have had to rely on people I trust to guide me. I'd love to learn more about how you all go about cooking and eating ethnic foods, and what you love and hate about the process. Feel free to let me know what you think and let me know if any of this is interesting. Thanks! Best, An
