Recipes by Samantha Duquette (Aspiring Culinary Pirate)

 

Here you’ll find recipes and helpful tidbits — keep your knives sharp, salt your pasta water, and pat your meat dry before searing, everyone — but you most definitely will not find a heartwarming story about Grandma’s Sunday dinner, because no one wants to scroll through 30 pages of “story time” when they’re hungry and ready to cook.

Here is where you'll come when you’re panicked and trying to impress the in-laws or a romantic interest.  A step-by-step survival guide to not completely f*cking up those important moments of nourishment for your mind, body, soul, or otherwise.

A bit about me – I’m a California Licensed Esthetician, published freelance writer, and about a million other things by trade.  I grew up cooking and you can find me dancing like an idiot in my kitchen on any day of the week.  I will forever still be learning – and make no mistake, if I can stick my hand in a chicken, gut a fish, and boil a lobster, so can you.  

 

So without further ado,

No microwave. No dishwasher. Let’s do this.
