About

Hello and welcome to my food alchemy blog. My name is Cara. I have had a love for cooking all my life. There is a lot of science and a lot to be understood about how our food is produced and how to best prepare it. But cooking isn't all science; it's also magical and emotional.

 

I'm here to share the recipes for my experiments and encourage others who want to cook but feel intimidated. You don't have to seek approval; you just have to want to try. Most of my cooking training I acquired at home or through the multiple restaurant jobs I took on when I made my way through college... in the early 2000s.

 

I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree and spent more than enough time in community theater and at home writing sci-fi fantasy novels that I'll one day finish. My Amateur Food Alchemy persona embodies my love of food and of fantasy.

 

Thanks for stopping by.
