food is sacral for ukrainians. any rituals around growing, cooking, sharing, and eating foods are synonymous with persisting, surviving, thriving, and connecting with fellow ukrainians against all odds. that's why one of the nicest things you can do to show appreciation for a ukrainian is to learn how to cook ukrainian dishes. today’s #UkrainianSpaces is all about nurturing all of us back to life, and decolonizing some stuff about ukrainian cuisine and culture along the way. our featured ukrainian is a celebrity chef and storyteller-foodwriter Olia Hercules.
