Welcome to The Cookbook Kitchen.
I’m Helen and I’ve been cooking for nearly 40 years. I come from a family of great cooks - my mum, my grandma, and my aunts - so I guess it was inevitable that I would love cooking.

Food has always been a big part of my life. It’s how we celebrate, how we comfort and how we stay connected. For Greeks, it’s never just about what’s on the plate. It’s the garden, the vineyard, the grandma (γιαγιά) down the road, and the generations that keep the traditions alive.

My love of cooking has only deepened through travel, especially through Greece. I’m constantly inspired by the ingredients, the people and the stories behind every meal.

Here you’ll find recipes, the cookbooks I love and a mix of food and inspiration from my travels.
