Nea Fane – Un Biet Român Pripășit în America / A Hapless Romanian Stuck in The US

Before we get to the recipe, the customary blah-blah-blah.

Being the nice guy that I am, I won’t make you scroll through a million ads before getting to the actual recipe.

And yet, a few things need to be said first.

How did we end up cooking at Rita’s? Nobody remembers exactly how it started, but once the seed was planted, that was all Irina needed. Tenacious as ever, she kept reminding everyone about the gathering, assigning tasks, and delegating responsibilities.

Somehow Craig didn’t get all the details. When he found out it would take three hours just to cook the sarmale, he went very quiet.

And sad.

But mostly quiet.

Watch the whole video to see what happened.

A couple of tips before you start:
Headphones are highly recommended. You’ll catch all the details… including my occasional loud idiotic comments.
YouTube kindly generated the closed captions automatically. I accept no responsibility for what the AI thinks I said.
