Who We Are
FoodishTalk is a home-cooking and recipe blog founded and edited by Ava Williams, a self-taught cook, food photographer, and flavor-chaser based in Hillsboro, Oregon. What started in 2018 as a digital recipe box for family favorites has grown into a vibrant community of readers who love exploring bold flavors, seasonal produce, and approachable techniques.
Our Mission
To help everyday cooks feel confident, creative, and connected—one recipe at a time.
We do this by:
Demystifying techniques with step-by-step photos and clear instructions.
Celebrating global flavors while using ingredients you can actually find in a neighborhood grocery store.
Promoting mindful cooking—from reducing food waste to sourcing ethically whenever possible.
Fostering community through comments, newsletter conversations, and our monthly “Cook-Along Challenge.”
