Welcome to “The Twisted Kitcheneer”

Merging my engineering sensibilities with culinary creativity, I apply a bold and efficient approach to food, equipment and space. I create, coax and construct dishes to accommodate all lifestyles, needs and palettes. Some ideas and final products might seem a bit twisted, but therein lies the charm.

The Twisted Mission:

No crucifying carbs, ferreting-out fats or counting calories. My mission is to Twist ingredients, recipes and culinary perceptions into tasty, easy-to-prepare, healthful versions. It’s a kitchen crusade to turn the naughty into nice, unpleasant into unforgettable, and to uncover fantastic foods and magnificent meals hiding in plain sight. No diets or portion control, just plates presented with a balance of nutrients having full flavor and offering a satisfying experience.

The “Face Your Food” Collaboration

The Twisted Kitcheneer is born of “Face Your Food” (FYF) project (App / Site). This newsletter has an independent mission and personality, but also serves as a portal for you into FYF happenings (Best Of’s, Giveaways, Notices, etc.). You don’t need to be part of the FYF Community to enjoy The Twisted Kitcheneer, but if you are, your activity on FYF can find its way to many more eyes, increasing your culinary exposure even more.
