ABOUT ME
I grew up in Utah and live in Salt Lake City. I cook for my husband, Brett; 8-year-old Kenji; and 6-year-old Miya. Food is my love language (thanks to growing up with Japanese parents), so cooking and food play a special part in my life and relationships.
MY MOST RELIABLE TASTE-TESTER
My daughter, Miya, was home with me while I was developing recipes for my first cookbook. Even though she was a toddler, she was brutally honest and always gave such enthusiastic feedback.
MY COOKING INSPIRATION
As a kid, I learned everything about cooking from the OG Food Network stars: Emeril Lagasse, Rachael Ray, Ina Garten, Bobby Flay, Sandra Lee. Now, I love researching how to make a dish, then seeing how it turns out at home.
A RECENT DINNER WIN
I made a delicious salmon crudo. I mixed together some citrus juice and zest, ponzu, chili crisp, cilantro, green onion, and sriracha and drizzled it over extra salmon. It was one of the best things I've ever made.

RETRO REWİND
Eat, drink, and time-travel back a few decades with party snacks from the '70s and '80s. What's old is new with a vintage-inspired menu and tableware that never goes out of style.
CELEBRATE CITRUS
Oranges play a part in many families' winter holiday festivities. (As the story goes, they symbolize St. Nicholas' generosity.) But regardless of your holiday traditions, tangerines, tangelos, clementines, and mandarins bring bold, juicy flavor to brighten the long winter.
