Preserve Your Family Recipes Via Video

Picture
The major portion and idea of this article came to us from Dick Eastman, and Ann-Terese Barket, aka The Food Archivist, April 25, 2016. We thank them.

Here’s an idea. Preserve family recipes by creating videos of the family member who makes it the best. Perhaps that person is you.

Ann-Terese Barket, aka The Food Archivist, thinks the perfect gift just might be a two-inch flash drive containing a video or a DVD of Mom (or another family member) cooking up a family favorite recipe that will be copied and shared for gifts or _____________ (you fill this one in). Make lots of copies and distribute them as gifts. The videos do not need to be professional Hollywood productions. Your family members will probably appreciate watching the family expert's work“as is.”  (Click on Read More)

 Barket documents family recipes via videos and transcripts so they may be easily shared with relatives and friends. She officially started her business after realizing how important recipes were in maintaining the cherished culinary memories of her own family.

“But unofficially, this has been (happening) since I was a little girl,” Ann-Terese said. “I would watch my dad cook all the recipes at our El Matador Restaurant. I documented his every move, and when he passed, I felt the need to have a cookbook filled with his recipes.”

“This was the beginning of making an El Matador family cookbook, which was only possible by the knowledge of my eldest sister Nancy. She was the only person who cooked with my dad and knew the recipes. That’s when I under-stood the value of documenting family recipes for now and future generations.”

Barket, who has a doctorate in East West psychology, spent 13 years in the world of academia. Her career experiences included research, documentary field work, child counseling and teaching child development and psychology in the state university system.

We thank her and Dick Eastman for allowing us to share this outstanding idea in saving what we have loved from the special people in our lives. The best part of finding a way to copy and thus preserve and then share a variety of priceless family treasures and heirlooms so that generations of ancestors can love and know them too.
