Every recipe on George's Kitchen is original. Not adapted. Not inspired by. Made from scratch — the result of decades cooking in kitchens across four continents and asking questions that most cookbooks don't think to ask.
This week: Glazed Chicken Thighs, Pan-Fried Potatoes and a Salad. Simple. Honest. The kind of meal that gets requested again.
Two new paid features launching this week — George's Table and Morsels. Personal stories and food world dispatches for the readers who want more than a recipe.

Some dishes announce themselves before you even taste them.
The moment ginger and garlic hit the pan, your kitchen transforms. What follows is this — Asian chicken vermicelli soup. A golden broth that hums with flavour. Vermicelli noodles, bok choy glistening with soy, impossibly thin slices of chicken pounded flat to soak up every drop. Finished with shaved carrots and sharp green onions for that raw, crisp contrast.
Comforting. Bold. Ready in minutes.
Full recipe up now. Save it. Make it this week. You will not regret it. 🍜🧄

Today in history: May 13, 1637.

Cardinal Richelieu looked around his dinner table and got fed up watching guests pick their teeth with the points of their daggers.

So he ordered all his dinner knife blades ground down and rounded off.

The modern dinner knife — the one on your table right now — was born because a 17th century cardinal had had enough of bad table manners.

History is everywhere. Even in your cutlery drawer.

🍓 Strawberries on pizza? In soup? As salsa?
German strawberry growers are changing how we think about this fruit — and honestly, they're onto something.
That tartness, that juicy burst — it doesn't just belong in dessert. It belongs on your dinner table.
We put together a simple Fresh Strawberry Salsa recipe that works on grilled fish, chicken, tacos, or just with good chips. And the best part? It's perfect for those slightly bruised strawberries you'd normally skip at the market.

Fresh Strawberry Salsa
Perfect on grilled fish, chicken, tacos — or just with good chips
Ingredients

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and finely diced (slightly bruised ones work beautifully)
½ red onion, finely diced
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
Small handful fresh cilantro, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1 tsp honey
Pinch of salt

Method
Combine everything in a bowl. Let it sit for 15 minutes before serving — this matters. It gives the strawberries time to release their juice and lets all the flavours come together properly. Taste, then adjust lime or salt.
That's it.
The honey is optional. Sweet ripe strawberries won't need it. Tart ones will thank you for it.

Maple-Glazed Wild Salmon with Orzo & Cucumber Tomato Salad
— Pacific Northwest Traditions —

A feast rooted in Coast Salish heritage. Cedar-smoke history meets maple glaze, jewelled orzo, and a bright vinegared salad that sings alongside the fish. Intimate, grounding, and absolutely delicious.

Perfect for two. Ready to become a favourite. 🍂🌊

Four countries walked into my kitchen last night.
Greece brought the lamb — a recipe I learned from Mrs. Mochonas, the Greek lady who looked after our boys for years. Twenty years later I still make it exactly the way she showed me.
France brought the peas. Just butter. Just simplicity. Just heaven.
Japan brought the salad dressing — a gift from a waiter in Tokyo who smiled, disappeared, and came back with a bottle of sushi vinegar.
Peru brought the potato. Garlic. Butter. Patience.
This is how George's Kitchen works. Not one cuisine. Not one country. Everything I have tasted, everywhere I have been — on one plate.
The story behind every dish is free to read. The full recipe is for paid subscribers — $49 a year, less than one dinner out.

This week in George's Kitchen — we're going to Peru. 🇵🇪

Peruvian cuisine is one of the great hidden gems of the food world — a stunning fusion of ancient Inca, Spanish, Japanese, African, Chinese, and Italian influences that produces some of the boldest, most layered flavours you'll ever taste. Over 7,000 dishes. Ranked among the best cuisines on the planet.

We're cooking a full Peruvian dinner this week:
🥗 A bright, fresh salad
🍝 Roasted squash
🥔 Potatoes (Peruvian style — trust us)
🍗 Pollo A La Brasa — Peru's most beloved chicken dish, slow-roasted and deeply flavourful

All four recipes are live on George's Kitchen. Click the link to read, cook, and if you love what we do here — subscribing on Substack is the best way to never miss a meal. 🙏
