Meet the Mayerhoffers
Oliver Mayerhoffer

Natalia Mayerhoffer
Co-founder · Teacher · Dentist by training · ContributorNatalia contributes through cooking and recipe development, food-tradition and ingredient research, writing, editing, photography and family journeys. Her Siberian heritage informs stories where that context is relevant.
Each story has its own basis. First-hand experience belongs to the person who had it; a recipe is described as tested only when it has been made using the method presented; and research-led guidance is not presented as a personal visit or review.
