About
Hello there, Welcome.
I’m David
A home chef, father of two boys and founder of Savory Kitchin. It’s nice to meet you.
I’m the author and recipe-maker behind Savory Kitchin. I started this as a way to share my recipes. It has become a bit more involved and I spend A LOT of time working on it!!
I live in Boston area, and am an avid outdoors person. I love reading books and traveling the world!
Welcome and don’t be afraid to comment!!
How did I get here?
To date myself and quote a favorite song… “Well, how did I get here?
I’m not just another Talking Head. (Hint, hint.)
I’ve wanted to start a food blog for years. Thought about a food truck at one point, maybe a restaurant. Life shifted. Dipped my toes in the food business briefly—wasn’t for me. Here I am instead, and it’s better, so much better! I’ll share what I’ve learned; techniques, shortcuts, tricks that work without the chaos of running a kitchen.
Recipes are great. Cooking gets interesting when you go off-script, though. Extra garlic because you feel like it? Out of something so you wing it? That’s when it clicks. Had wins, had flops. The flops are worth sharing.
Cooking’s more than food on the table. Fire up the stove and something amazing can happen. A dish from across the world, a twist on Mom’s classic, whatever. Always something new. Always.
Messy moments full of laughter and weird lessons—those make it worth it. Maybe these stories nudge you to try something wild or just mess around more at home.
We’re having fun here. Starting with easy dishes that pack bold flavor—simplest things catch you off guard. Not fancy, not boring. We’ll tackle hard stuff too. You might surprise yourself. Cooking for yourself, your family, or a crowd (huge crowd? Yes!) There’s always something that’ll make you want to get in there and kick kitchen butt!
Simple doesn’t mean boring. Experiment. Room to explore flavors and techniques. You might find your next favorite combo.
A few resources for you aspiring food bloggers!
I am going to start with the thing that put me over the edge and really gave me the courage to begin. Like most of you, I read a number of food blogs and one I kept going back to was Pinch of Yum. Obviously there are many, many great recipes to try over there but they also have an amazing amount of resources. The biggest one for me was their offering: Food Blogger Pro. It is packed full of information on how to start a food blog, what to do, how to grow it, tools, resources and a ton more. I am really thankful that I found the food blogger course as it has really got me on my way.
Ok, that really sounds like I am sponsored by them or something. Full disclosure: I am not! I am just a member of Food Blogger Pro and I feel like more people should know about it!
In terms of a few of the tools I am using so far:
I will be adding some of my own techniques and tips for you to peruse like how to Julienne or how to roast grapes! In the end, this is supposed to be fun and a great way to share.
Happy Cooking!!!
