My name is Carolina, and I'm delighted to have you join me on this home culinary adventure. You love to understand the "why" behind recipes to create your own twists? You are in good company!
My passion for creating original recipes based on the ingredients available in my home fridge has inspired me to develop simple yet delicious meals that can be prepared on a weeknight basis for my family. As a working mom with a 2-year-old and a newborn, I understand the importance of quick, satisfying, and flavorful dishes that can be prepared even with a child tugging at your apron strings.
My approach is centered on empowering you to become your own home personal chef, free to improvise in the kitchen without relying solely on recipes.
Learnings: This section delves into the understanding of the five basic tastes, the flavor profiles of specific ingredients, and essential cooking techniques. From exploring the nuances of umami to mastering the art of cutting and utilizing a stainless steel pan, Learnings equip you with the knowledge to become a confident and creative cook.
Recipes: As an extension of the Learnings, Recipes provide practical exercises to put your newfound knowledge and techniques into practice. While the recipes serve as a foundation, I encourage you to improvise and remain agile in the kitchen, adapting the dishes to suit your personal taste and preferences.

Sharing my experiments with my daily family cooking every week. Stay tuned for more!
