About Emily & FlavourRecipe
Hello and welcome! I’m Emily Parker, the creator, writer, photographer, and pasta enthusiast behind FlavourRecipe a warm online kitchen dedicated to celebrating the beauty of homemade food, with a special love for pasta in all its shapes, flavors, and stories.
My passion for cooking traces back to my childhood, where I spent countless afternoons in my aunt’s kitchen. That kitchen was my first classroom: the sound of simmering sauces, the aroma of fresh basil, and the simple joy of gathering around a meal prepared with love. Those early memories shaped the way I see food today not just as nourishment, but as a form of connection, creativity, and comfort.
Over the years, I experimented, learned, failed, succeeded, and fell even deeper in love with the world of home cooking. When I created FlavourRecipe, my dream was simple:
to build a space where home cooks of every level feel inspired, supported, and excited to create delicious meals especially pasta dishes in their own kitchens.
What started as a personal passion project has now grown into a flourishing community of food lovers who share a deep appreciation for comforting, flavorful, easy-to-make meals.
The Heart of FlavourRecipe
FlavourRecipe focuses on approachable cooking: recipes that any home cook can recreate, using simple ingredients, clear instructions, and practical tips. While I share a variety of cozy, homemade dishes, pasta remains the soul of this blog. From the silkiest spaghetti sauces to creative twists on traditional Italian flavors, pasta is where I feel most at home.
Every recipe published here goes through testing, refinement, and lots of tasting to ensure it’s worth sharing.
My mission is to make cooking enjoyable not stressful and to help you feel confident every time you step into the kitchen.
