About the work

A closer look.

Tell me a dish and I will find where it really comes from. Your grandmother's soup, the thing your town eats at the fair, a dish you have always wondered about. I dig through cookbooks, regional histories, and the older kitchens it passed through, then write you the story and the classic recipe side by side. You get: the real origin (often not what the internet says), how the dish changed over time, the traditional recipe written to actually work in a home kitchen, and the one small detail that makes it right. Around 700 words plus the recipe, delivered as a PDF. Two-day delivery, one revision included. If I cannot find anything true and interesting about your dish, I will tell you before you pay, and you get your money back. Dishes I already know well: sopa de ajo, migas de pastor, ajoblanco, tortilla de patatas, fabada asturiana. Ask about anything.
