Welcome to My Cooking tasty Where Every Recipe Tells a Story

Who We Are

Hi there! I’m Alexandra, a 38-year-old self-taught chef from the USA, and I’m so happy to welcome you into my kitchen. Cooking has always been my safe place a space where creativity blends with comfort, and a spark of curiosity can turn simple ingredients into something truly delicious.

I didn’t begin as a professional. In fact, I started just like many of you: burning my first batch of cookies, overcooking pasta, and wondering how anyone managed to cook a perfect steak. But little by little, I fell in love with the journey. There’s something special about transforming everyday ingredients into meals that bring people together that feeling never fades.

My passion for cooking grew from family memories and experiments that went wonderfully right… and sometimes hilariously wrong. I spent countless evenings testing recipes, playfully adjusting flavors, and discovering that even the smallest change can elevate a dish from good to unforgettable. I’ve learned that cooking isn’t about perfection it’s about joy, learning, and connection. Every meal has a story, and mine is rooted in exploration, flavor, and heart.

I created My Cooking tasty to help home cooks and beginners feel confident and inspired in the kitchen. My mission is to make cooking feel approachable, exciting, and fun. You don’t need fancy gadgets or rare ingredients to make something amazing just patience, curiosity, and the courage to try again when things don’t go quite as planned.
