Join my Kitchen Essentials membership – your monthly guide to seasonal, home cooking.
If you enjoy cooking from scratch and want to build a solid foundation in your home kitchen, I’d love to welcome you to my Kitchen Essentials membership on Substack.
Each month, I share a themed guide focused on a foundational element of seasonal cooking—from stocks and ferments to ghee, sourdough, and more. You’ll learn how to make these basics at home, why they matter, and how to use them in everyday meals. I also include tested recipes, kitchen tips, and a peek into how I structure my kitchen through the seasons.
