Host Juan Pablo Gonzalez has fond memories of cooking traditional Venezuelan dishes during his childhood and he shares some of his family's secrets. For his first recipe, Juan Pablo makes a pan de jamon, a soft sweet bun that brings back memories of spending time with his family at Christmas. Juan Pablo combines the flavour of savoury ham and salty olives with sweet raisins to create a melt-in-your-mouth holiday favourite. Next, he cooks vuelve la vida, a refreshing seafood ceviche that mixes the tantalizing textures of squid, shrimp and mussels.
