Flavours of My Kitchen
Recipes, memories, and everyday meals made from what’s on hand
Kitchen Memories
Authentic Vietnamese pâté recipe made with pork liver and ground pork. Smooth, rich, and perfect for homemade bánh mì sandwiches.
Tuna Pasta
A good croissant is flaky, but soft, all while having a rich buttery flavour.
Making butter croissants at home is a labour of love. It takes time, lots of rolling, and patience. But imagine when you pull out a tray of fresh croissants from the oven. The aroma will make you feel like you’re in a Parisian bakery without even leaving your home. Mmm totally worth it!
Flavours of My Kitchen is my online recipe journal, where I share cookies, cakes, simple desserts, and cozy home-cooked meals that fit into real life. I write recipes the way I cook at home with clear steps, tested measurements, and small details that help you feel confident and avoid stress in the kitchen.
I cook and bake from memory. Many of the recipes on this blog are inspired by the places I visit and the food I fall in love with when I travel. I pay attention to what people eat, how they share meals, and the small traditions around the table. Then I come home and recreate those dishes in my own kitchen.
Sometimes I can’t find the exact same ingredients where I live, but the feeling stays. These recipes are my way of holding on to those cities, people, and moments, while adapting them into something simple and approachable.
Here you’ll find a mix of everyday baking, home-cooked meals, and travel-inspired dishes, each one carrying a story, not just a list of ingredients.
My approach may look a little different from other bakers. I bake for customers, so I use techniques from the pastry industry that save time, reduce stress, and still deliver reliable, delicious results.
Fridge Cooking
(aka what’s in the fridge, but make it good)
I cook from memory, instinct, and whatever is in my fridge.
This blog is a collection of the dishes that stayed with me.
Some of the best meals don’t start with a recipe they start with what’s already in the fridge.
This collection is about simple, everyday cooking inspired by memory, instinct, and whatever ingredients are on hand. From lemongrass salmon to leftover bread turned into something special, these dishes are practical, comforting, and full of flavor.
When the bread becomes a little stale the next day, we don’t throw it away. Instead, we toast it until the crust becomes crisp again and the inside warms up. Then we drizzle it generously with our homemade green onion sauce.
