Welcome to RecipeReporter.com!

We’re so happy you’re here. Recipe Reporter was born from one simple idea: that every recipe is a story worth sharing.

I’m Emma – the heart behind this site – and this journey began in a snug kitchen in South London with a secondhand notebook, a phone full of food photos, and a deep love for home cooking. I didn’t grow up surrounded by top chefs or glamorous ingredients, but food was always the centre of life—Sunday roasts with my mum, late-night toasties with uni mates, and puddings that made everything feel just right.

Now based in the U.S., I still carry those British flavours with me, but they’ve blended beautifully with the spices, traditions, and kitchen quirks I’ve picked up along the way. Home cooking is my anchor—it’s how I stay connected to where I come from and how I find new stories in where I am.

As Recipe Reporter grew, so did the team. From time to time, two amazing friends—Lea and Marco—join me on this journey. They each bring their own flavor to the mix: Lea loves comfort food with a creative twist, while Marco draws inspiration from his Mediterranean roots. When they share a recipe, it’s always with heart, personality, and a story behind it.

This site is a cozy online kitchen where food meets storytelling. You’ll find family recipes, cultural favorites, quick meals, and nostalgic treats—all with a personal touch.

Whether you’re here for a new dinner idea or a trip down memory lane, we hope our recipes bring a little joy to your table.

So grab your favorite mug, make yourself at home, and let’s cook—and tell stories—together.
