About Salt & Hearth

Hi, I'm Hanan — the founder and editor behind Salt & Hearth.

Salt & Hearth started with a simple frustration: I'd save a recipe video, and when it was finally time to cook, half the details weren't there. No exact measurements, no times, no temperatures — just a fast-moving clip and a lot of guessing in the kitchen.

So I built a place where the recipe is written out properly. Every one here is standardised into the same shape: full ingredient lists in cups and grams, ingredients grouped by the stage they're used in, and steps that tell you why something matters, not just what to do. If a dough needs to feel tacky rather than smooth, it says so.

I'm not a trained chef and I don't pretend the recipes here were developed in a test kitchen — they're classic and popular dishes, adapted and written out clearly. You can read exactly how the site is made, including where AI is used, on the disclosure page.

Every recipe here is written out in full — complete ingredient lists, exact times and temperatures, and the small tips that make a real difference. I focus on comfort food worth making: hot honey everything, loaded fries, cozy bakes, cheesy one-pan dinners, and the viral remakes everyone is talking about.

We’re open about how the site is made — including where AI is used in the writing and the photography. It’s all set out on how we make this site.

You can find every recipe by Hanan in one place, or get in touch any time.
