About Untrained Chef

I'm a home cook, not a chef. I run this site because I got tired of scrolling past five paragraphs of food-blogger backstory before reaching the actual recipe. Everything here is something I actually make for my family — tested in my own kitchen, written the way I would tell a friend.

Why three languages

My family lives between Norway and Poland, so the recipes are translated into Norwegian, Polish, and English. Same recipe, same family kitchen — just so everyone can read it. Translations are done by an AI model and lightly proofed by me; if you spot something off, please email me.

How the site stays free

The site is supported by Google AdSense — small text and display ads alongside recipes. No paid placements, no sponsored recipes, no affiliate links snuck into ingredient lists. If a recipe is here, it is because we actually make it.
