Although I love your recipes and think it's great that you're educating people on their heritage,Cooking isn't just mom's jobs,being a recipe website,by naming it the way you did,you're reinforcing the idea moms are the ones who should be in the kitchen,where's the dad in this?It's regressive to correlate being a woman to be in the kitchen.
