What Renee’ does: Strategy, Most Cocktail Recipes, Newsletter & Tech

Hi, I’m Renee’—a food lover who didn’t exactly grow up cooking. Now I’m endlessly curious and always experimenting—sometimes successfully, sometimes hilariously not. I started CookingChew.com because I had a million cooking questions and couldn’t always find the answers I was looking for online. So I decided to create the kind of resource I wished existed: fun, approachable, and full of real-world kitchen wisdom (with plenty of taste-testing along the way).
When I’m not testing recipes or fixing a website glitch, you’ll probably find me obsessing over new kitchen gadgets, taking too many photos of dinner, or planning what to eat next.
Want to hear from me a couple times a week with links to recipes, a promotion or two, a fun snippet, a tip and the occasional giveaway? Sure you do. Sign up here.
What Andi does: Most Food Recipes, Content Management & PR/Marketing

Hi, Andi here—and yes, I’m the one in the kitchen with flour on my shirt and too many spoons in the sink. I grew up in a big Italian family where everything happened around the kitchen table—talking, laughing, and, of course, eating.
This may be TMI, but I love everything about Christmas time and I listen to Christmas music almost year-round. 🎄🎄🎄
The kitchen has always been my comfort zone, and I love sharing the tips, tricks, and shortcuts I’ve learned along the way. If you ever have a question or want to swap ideas, drop a comment on any article or I’d love to hear from you!
