Hi and welcome!

I'm Dea.

As far back as I can remember I have had a love affair with veggies. Not as a vegetarian but in a "wow this is so tasty!"-kind of way. I have lived in (and eaten my way through) several different countries, from East to West. This has given me an appreciation for the way things are done elsewhere. And it is those two elements combined, the love of plants and the exposure to global flavors, that inspired me to create East West Flavors. Through recipes, workshops, and cookbooks I hope to show just how uncomplicated it can be to make delicious and healthy meals centered around whole plant foods - sprinkled with a little global magic.
