About Cooking With Ella
Hi, and welcome to my kitchen! My name is Anitta, and I’m a passionate home cook, gardener, and food lover, always experimenting with flavors from around the world.
The recipes here are the ones I cook for my family—some are classic Finnish dishes, others inspired by my travels. I love using fresh herbs, bold spices, and homegrown vegetables like tomatoes, chilies, zucchini, and garlic.
My son, who’s been in the kitchen with me since he was little, asked me to write down his favorite recipes. This blog is for him—and for anyone who loves tasty home cooking with a variety of spices and flavors.
Meet Ella
And right by my side—waiting (not so patiently) for a taste—is my Labrador, Ella. She’s been my loyal kitchen companion from the start, which is why this blog carries the name Cooking with Ella. My son, who’s been in the kitchen with me since he was little, asked me to write down his favorite recipes.
