Welcome to Cooking With Mum!

A (mostly) delicious project

This project was commenced in late 2024, borne out of my mum Rose and I's shared love of cooking, desire to add to our culinary repertoire, and most importantly as a way to stay connected while we live in seperate cities. For me, it's wonderful to share something like this even though we're apart, especially with the woman who raised me on such lovingly home cooked meals and taught me almost everything I know about cooking today.

The idea is that we choose a recipe book and make our way through it together, one recipe at a time. About once a week, we choose a recipe from that book and make it, then compare notes from both ourselves and our respective guinea pigs husbands. Some are hits, some are things we would never otherwise make, and others are...best left as print!

Currently, we are cooking and eating our way through a true 1961 classic - Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking.

We have started (and consequently abandoned, with good reason) others - feel free to check them out in the links above.
