Hey, it’s Marlowe Ashby

flowersss
Hi, I’m Marlowe Ashby. For over 18 years I’ve cooked, catered, and studied the science behind good food, eventually earning a PhD in culinary nutrition. Everything you’ll find here has been chopped, simmered, and taste-tested in my own kitchen before it reaches you. When I’m not writing, I’m hunting farmers’ markets or perfecting my sourdough. My aim is to make honest cooking feel doable for anyone.
