Super chewy, warmly spiced, easy to make cookies. Simple and delicious Chocolate Chip Molasses Cookies. Chewy, buttery, spiced cookies loaded with rich, sweet, melty chocolate chips.

The crostini is just a suggestion, but trust me… it’s insanely good. Tomato Garlic Confit. Cherry tomatoes (or grape tomatoes or any other small-ish tomatoes) and whole garlic cloves cook slowly in a rich olive oil bath and transform into a sweet, savoury, buttery dish of irresistible deliciousness. Honestly, what […]
My favourite non-salad salad. Ohhhhhhh man… This Warm Potato Bacon Salad… Roasted potatoes tossed with thick-cut salty bacon, peppery green arugula and topped with a creamy parmesan dressing.

Because the vegetarians need dipping tacos too! Ok. Vegetarian Birria Tacos. Who doesn’t love Birria Tacos?

They never get the chance to try them because […]
The easiest and yummiest fancy-not-fancy dish you’ll ever make. Cast Iron Chicken Parmesan. One skillet. Incredibly easy. Insanely delicious. It’s your new best friend.

Welcome to my site! I'm a self-taught, home cook who pretty much lives in the kitchen. Or with my nose in a cookbook. Cooking is my passion, my obsession, my very favourite thing. I make a lot of really good comfort food that's slightly elevated but isn't too fussy. I'm not here to teach you how to cook, I'm here to inspire you, to show you something new and really, really good, and to make you hungry. In my home, in The Pypers Kitchen, this is what we eat.
