Cooking started out as an activity that I enjoyed and found rewarding. At one point I began writing down my recipes in an old journal. Then I started making note cards and sharing the recipes.
Finally, in October 2009, I decided to start keeping record of them online as a way to keep them all in one place and also to share with friends and family. Thus, Yankee Cook was born.
I chose the term “Yankee” in the title of this blog as a reference to the regional and local ingredients that I enjoy so much. That’s not to say I limit myself (or this blog) to New England fare, but I always use local ingredients wherever possible.
This blog documents my recipes, some tried and true standards that I’ve been making for years, and other are newer.
Most importantly, I only post what I’ve tested and know is good so that hopefully you won’t be disappointed.
Check out my food column at GreenYankee.com, a resource for eco-smart people, places and products.
Enjoy!
