“After three years of resting, nag-reset muna ako, and now that I’m back. Balik na tayo rito sa original kitchen of ‘Judy Ann’s Kitchen.’ Let me just say, ang bongga ng teaser, ang bongga-bongga ng OBB, pinaghandaan talaga namin talaga ‘tong pagbabalik na ‘to,” she said.

“It took us at least almost 6 months of pre-prod para buoin namin ‘to. We have new details in the kitchen at saka ang dami naming bagong ipapakita sa inyo. Bago in a way na may mga tips, may mga hacks, may mga surprises along the way,” she added, before asking viewers to bear with her throughout the video as she admits feeling anxious and nervous about the episode. “Siguro excited din ako kasi na-miss ko kayong lahat!”

She mentioned how a lot of her fans and viewers have been asking her when “Judy Ann’s Kitchen” was going to make its comeback which she found overwhelming.

“Kayo po ang dahilan kung bakit ako talaga nag-effort nang bonggang-bongga sa napakagandang pagbabalik namin here at ‘Judy Ann’s Kitchen,'” she expressed.

Check out the full recipe video below:

“Judy Ann’s Kitchen” premiered on YouTube in October 2017 and she has since garnered over 1.74 Million subscribers. The title of her cooking show was based on the title of her cookbook which was published in 2015. This was after she graduated with honors from the Center for Asian Culinary Studies in 2006.

She took a pause in making videos for her cooking channel in 2022 due to inflation and the rising cost of grocery items, claiming she did not want to alienate the Filipino masses who wouldn’t be able to relate to her recipes.

Her show is a hit among Filipino netizens not only for the dishes she cooks but also for her funny and meme-able commentary while cooking.
