with white balsamic hot honey AND lemony garlicky crispy panko This is one of those dinners where the sheet pan is doing a lot of the work while you’re puttering around making things taste even better because what else do you have to do other than (obviously) opening the wine… […]
because if dinner doesn’t have at least three textures, I’m not interested. If there’s one thing I want in my food, it’s crunch (chewy is a close second, but that’s another conversation). I’ve made enough rice bowls over the years to know that the difference between a good one and […]

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 with creative twists and bolder flavours. My food is 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.
