    I found your channel about a year ago because I went to a European shop in downtown Seattle that sold really good piroshkis. Naturally, I looked for a recipe on YouTube and found your first piroshki videos. I now love seeing all your recipes and bubbly personality. And your gorgeous hair! Tell me your hair secrettttss!!!!!!!
    God bless you beautiful sister!! Prayers going out to you! Jesus loves you so much and wants to have a personal relationship with you. All you need to do is call out to him today in faith! ❤❤❤

    It looks brilliant – just one question – there are certain chefs that are always like, "'deglaze!" whenever they fry anything in the skillet. Is there any reason you cleaned the pan (6:38) before making the lemon caper sauce instead of deglazing? (I'm sure it doesn't make much of a difference either way, just curious if there was any particular reason)

    OMG Tatyana! How did I miss this? Just stumbled on it because I was thinking about risotto this weekend. This is just incredible-I can't wait to try it-looks like one of the best things you've ever done!! I love risotto and my family does, too. (keeping the finishing broth warm-what a great idea!) And scallops-oh my goodness-that sauce is just inspired! One downside for us is my wife doesn't like scallops, so I'm thinking about chicken and finishing it with the same sauce. Anyway, thank you so much! This was so serendipitous for me this afternoon! Just so good to be in your kitchen. We continue our prayers for you and your loved ones and Ukraine.

    why not add some butter when finishing the lemon caper sauce.. then drizzle the scallops… As another great redhead woman cook would say a little butter goes a long way.. that cook was none other than Julie Child

    Omg 😩 I want to make this recipe! But I’m scared because I’ve never tried making scallops or risotto lol. I don’t want to mess it up! But I love how easy and clear your instructions are and how you put the viewer at ease! You’re the best Tatyana! I’ll give this a try.
