Cook the Book Blogs

Cooking through our Favourite Cookbooks

Jen W

Jen Watkiss is the founder of the Cook the Book collection of blogs. She actively resisted anything to do with the kitchen in her childhood, assembled only “food” (in the loosest possible sense of the word) that came out of cans and boxes through her university years, and can’t quite remember how she turned into a cooking foodie. She’s always been an adventurous eater, and her love of trying new foods & flavours eventually transitioned into learning to create some of them herself.

She lives in Vancouver, BC. When she’s not cooking or blogging, she works in technology marketing, does yoga, writes her personal blog, WorldWideWaterCooler and spends time at the beach with her husband and dog.

Her current Cook the Book project is the Menus from an Orchard Table blog.
