hey there, i’m bianka!
Welcome to Damn Spicy, here you’ll find a selection of both sweet and savory recipes that have been tested, developed, and eaten in my kitchen!
I have a huge passion for world cuisine, I’m that one gal going left and right to savor the world in every way possible.
my goal…
My goal is to bring you with me as I try new dishes around the world and find out all the location-specific tips and tricks to make them taste authentic so I can share them with you. This way you’ll be able to taste the world from your own kitchen.
Whenever I share a recipe I make sure to provide clear step-by-step instructions so you can recreate it easily, no matter your skillset or where you live!
I believe that making food should be a fun activity (and eating it should be an experience) instead of a boring, dreadful task and getting into world cuisine is the best way to keep food adventurous ⏤ there’s always something new to try!
how I started out…
I started Damn Spicy in 2020, a dark year for many of us, determined to begin a new chapter in my life.
Food played a big role that year, turning into a bonding experience, a fun adventure, and even a new hobby or skill for many people. Suddenly, everyone was online and everyone was cooking and looking for the next dish to make to keep mind off things.
I wanted to be part of that.
And that’s when I started sharing all my favorite recipes: from my super popular Greek Lemon Rice, to my emergency-baking Small Batch Fudge Brownies.
And here I am, sharing new recipes every week, with a mix of savory and sweet and all the tips and tricks you might need!
Thank you for following along and trying out my recipes. You guys made my 2020 a bit more sparkly and gave me the confidence to pursue food blogging! 🧡
