Is it Rocca? Rocket? Roquette? Arugula? Has any green ever had so many names? I’m calling this Rocca Salad. That’s what they call it in the middle east and since I used sumac in this dressing (it is the BEST dressing!!) I’m in keeping with the theme. Plus, it’s the […]

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.
