Hello and Welcome!
I’m so happy you’ve found this little corner of the internet! I’m Sahar. I’m a girl who loves to cook and get lost in the feeling of turning a few ingredients into a complex and flavorful dish that can bring a smile to someone’s face. I created this blog to share my love of cooking (and eating!) with a little community of like minded people.
Ever since I was a kid, I loved to eat and try different types of food. I was never really a picky eater, and I was always adventurous with my food choices. Around fourth grade, I remember seeing a recipe for a caprese pasta salad, so I made my mom a grocery list and cooked my first dish all by myself. Since then, my love for food and cooking and experimentation in the kitchen has only grown!
Here are some fun facts about me.
I love to learn french, speak french, hear french. I love learning about their culture, traditions, and food of course!
I’m kind of a TV junkie. Sitcoms, dramas, Jeopardy… I’m here for it all.
You can find me in my little backyard garden most days in the warmer months, taking care of my plants and growing vegetables (or trying to, at least!).
I’m also a little bit of science nerd, so you will definitely see a few interesting tidbits of information, behind the science of cooking, pop up in some of my posts.
So, what can you expect to see here?
You can expect to see new posts 1-2 times a week, ranging from desserts to dinner to snacks, and everything in between.
I want to make cooking as accessible as I can for you, so there will always be modifications listed in recipes, wherever possible.
As mentioned earlier, you will find little snippets of information on the science of cooking in most of my posts too.
My goal is to help people play around with different flavors and styles of cooking, to help people realize that cooking isn’t as hard as it can sometimes seem. I want to help more people explore different cuisines and foods that they might never have tried, and develop their own cooking style that works for them.
So if anything I mentioned above sounded interesting to you, feel free to stick around and take a look. Try out a recipe or two!
Let’s stay in touch!
If you do try out a recipe, I would absolutely love to hear your experience! Let me know what you liked, what you think I could improve on, or what you want to see! Please comment below or tag @eatsbysahar on Instagram to share the inspiration! You can also contact me here.
