Our contributors are home cooks, professional chefs and food writers, scientists, agriculturists and foragers who write from and about adventures on all continents. Our readers are just as diverse as our writers, with interests in every aspect of food and food preparation.
It is the desire of The Cook’s Cook to be a community where contributors and readers can share techniques, recipes and food-related experiences from all corners of our globe.
