I've spent much of the past 25 years in professional kitchens, and believe that the world is a better place when we cook our own food and share it with the people we love. I began blogging in 2006, then took a five year hiatus from it in 2015. When I returned to the internet community, blogs were SEO-driven and no fun anymore, the community gone. I'm keeping most of the recipes from my blog years as a kind of searchable recipe box, but now I write in a new place.
My Substack newsletter is where I connect with people as I continue to write about food and food issues, what we're eating and drinking, as well as cultural stuff, like what my wife, Ann Hood, and I are reading and watching.
Head to the newsletter, have a look, and if you like what you read, I hope you'll subscribe—there's a free subscription for the biweekly newsletter and a paid options for those who want a little more access and info.
Cheers,
Michael
