About The House Husband

A personal recipe book, left open on the counter.

I'm still learning to cook. That's kind of the whole point. This site started as a way to stop asking myself “wait, how did I make that again?” — a place I can pull up on my phone anywhere and get the exact recipe, quantities, and notes from the last time it worked.

Primarily, it's for me. A living repository I can access from anywhere — at the grocery store, in the kitchen, at a friend's place. But it's out in the open, so if anyone else finds something useful here, that's a bonus.

What's Here

• Recipes I've made enough times to trust
• Notes on what went wrong and how I fixed it
• Dishes I'm actively learning — from simple weeknight meals to technically demanding things like har gow
• Honest timings, real quantities, no fluff

The Approach

Nothing here is perfected — it's documented. Some recipes I've made a hundred times, others I'm still dialling in. The notes reflect that. If something can go wrong, I'll say so. If there's a shortcut worth taking, I'll say that too.
