Cook With Us

Good food starts with good ingredients — and the courage to step into the kitchen with an open heart. Cook With Us is where we share seasonal recipes, kitchen stories, and the techniques that help us create meaningful meals at home.

Whether you’re cooking for a crowd or making something simple on a weeknight, we hope these posts and videos inspire you to slow down, cook with intention, and fall in love with the seasons.

Cook With Us — Live & In the Kitchen

We host relaxed, seasonal cook-alongs on YouTube so you can cook right beside us — asking questions, learning techniques, and having some fun in the kitchen along the way.

If you’d like to join live next time, you’re always welcome. We host our weekly show at 6 PM EST every Sunday. Just hop on YouTube and join the show, engage with us or the rest of our followers.

Otherwise, feel free to explore past episodes below anytime the cooking mood strikes. We link our shopping lists in the show notes so you can shop for the video in advance.
