About Me

About Me

Hey there, welcome to Bite by Michelle, the place where I celebrate food, love and life. My name is Michelle Hooton. I’m a self trained chef, photographer and writer all of which happened because of this blog. I’ve been cooking for 50 years. It’s crazy to say that out loud but true. Somewhere in the thousands of recipes I’ve tested and food that I’ve made, I realized, there is always something that sets a recipe apart from all the others. A particular ingredient or a secret technique that takes an ordinary dish to extraordinary - good food to great food. This is where I share secrets to great food and stories about life. Glad you found me.
