Hello and welcome! I’m Jessica Gavin, a Certified Food Scientist and Certified Culinary Scientist, cookbook author, and teacher at heart. On this channel, you will find homemade recipes infused with food science knowledge and quick recipe tutorials with trusted tips and techniques learned in culinary school. jessicagavin.com
During my studies, I learned about food technology and how food is delivered from “farm to fork”, putting the focus on providing safe and wholesome food. After college, I pursued a career in nutrition product development, creating healthy food, beverages, and children’s products for people around the world.
