Remember the delicious pizza that you created? For most of us, it takes a long time to learn how to make something tasty, but not for Remmi Smith. Still a teenager, she's already creating fantastic dishes. She's also becoming well known for her Italian salad dressing, which is delicious. And with her knowledge of social media(媒体), she's making sure that everyone knows she's here!
Remmi, who was born in China, now lives in the USA. She is just 16. She has already starred in two shows on cooking and her book of healthy recipes has recently come out. From the age of four, Remmi helped in the kitchen by preparing vegetables. By the age of seven, Remmi was a real food lover who could cook complete meals for her family.
Remmi began making videos for fun. Her mother videoed her while she was cooking and put the videos online. A local TV station broadcast(播放) them. They then asked Remmi to create another show for them.
That show is mainly about Remmi's interest, which is getting teenagers to take healthy eating seriously. She believes that when young people make their own food, they care more about what they eat. Remmi works with a company in the USA which shows her videos in school dining halls. About 3.5 million students watch her every day!
Remmi believes that young people can create a healthy meal for their family which doesn't cost a lot. Her delicious recipes include vegetable paella and strawberry kebabs. In fact, strawberries, which are Remmi's favourite food, appear in other recipes, including strawberry sandwiches!
