My Story

Hi! I’m Amelia Davis recipe developer, food photographer, and the voice behind Home Cooking Style. I started this blog in 2019 from a tiny apartment kitchen in Portland, Oregon, armed with one cast-iron skillet, a second-hand DSLR camera, and an obsession with re-creating my grandma’s comfort-food classics—minus the guesswork.

What began as a personal notebook of “family favorites” has since grown into a trusted resource for thousands of readers each month, featuring:

  • 700 + tested recipes spanning weeknight dinners, global flavors, and make-ahead meal prep.

  • High-resolution process photos so you know exactly what each step should look like.

  • Nutrition estimates & substitution notes for special diets (vegan, gluten-free, low-carb).

  • Video tutorials for tricky techniques—because some things are easier to learn visually.


Our Mission

Great food doesn’t have to be complicated—or expensive. Every recipe on the site stands on three pillars:

  1. Simplicity – Clear instructions, pantry-friendly ingredients, minimal gadgets.

  2. Flavor – Layered seasoning and smart shortcuts that deliver “wow” without extra fuss.

  3. Community – Two-way conversation in the comments, reader recipe remakes on Instagram (#HomeCookingStyle), and monthly Q&A live streams.
