Welcome! Here at the Home Cooking Collective, we believe that cooking is the gourmet’s act of self-care.
I see cooking as an act of love and a form of relaxation. Home Cooking Collective offers a diverse collection of flavorful, small-batch recipes made from scratch. In addition to these recipes, I also offer workshops and cooking guides aimed at creating memories and moments of joy for you in the kitchen.
Below, you’ll see a list of various guides, recipes, and workshops I recommend to find joy and comfort in the kitchen!
Cooking Guides
Ever wondered how chefs, on the fly, seem to be able to put together wildy interesting flavors into a coherent, delicious dish? Understanding how to balance flavors is a key part of this effort. A Guide to Developing Flavor explains how to build a dish from scratch – and it comes with a free, nifty PDF listing tons of different flavor combinations for you to experiment with.
Indian Cooking
Indian cooking can feel overwhelming and intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be that way. In my Guide to Indian Cooking: All About Spices, you’ll learn what spices are most important in Indian cooking plus how to cook with them.
Italian Cooking
In the United States, pasta is an absolutely classic weeknight favorite. But if you’ve ever wondered why the pasta you make at home doesn’t taste as good as a restaurant’s, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s a Guide to Cooking Great Pasta, which offers a lot of tips and tricks for, well, making delicious pasta at home.
A Guide to Making Great Homemade Thin-Crust Pizza is my most popular guide on the website, and for good reason! First of all, everyone loves pizza, and second of all, it is a monstrous, step-by-step guide on how to make pizza, from the dough to the toppings.
