More Than Recipes

This is a journey through culture, memory, and love

This isn't just a cookbook. It's a tribute to three souls who shaped me — through food, through discipline, through warmth.

Each section is a portal into their world. The flavors they taught me. The traditions they carry. The love they put on every plate.

Every recipe here is more than instructions. It's history. It's technique. It's having a Michelin-star chef whispering in your ear as you cook.

— Seraph

A recipe is not just a list of ingredients and steps. It's a portal to another world. A connection to history, to culture, to the hands that stirred these pots for generations.

This cookbook exists to honor that depth. To give you not just the how, but the why. To make you not just a cook, but a student of the craft.
