SPICY LIVING: A personal listen to the cookings of Kristina Pham-Loo.

SCRIPT:

Ambience: boiling water

“The moment I stepped into Kristina’s kitchen, I was overcome with the strong, spicy scents of her homemade chili oil”

Ambiance: quinoa and rice pouring

“The first time I cooked something was with my mom. I was five, but I was watching her the entire time”

Ambiance: water running, sizzling vegetables, stirring, drawers opening

“There was the constant chaos of vegetables sizzling, water boiling, and quick stirring, but Kristina made it seem relaxing and peaceful as she danced from task to task”

“After a long day, it’s really relaxing for me to just go into my kitchen and get into the zone and cook up a really good meal”

Ambiance: water boiling, silverware clanking in drawer, spoon and fork scraping, wine bottle opening and pouring

“Let’s eat!”

Ambiance: water running, drain
