The Journey of CookingHub
In 2019, I started CookingwithFamily.com because I wanted to share my passion for food. As Cooking with Family grew, it connected me with people all over. People shared with me recipes, stories, and a love of cooking. The more the community grew, the more I realized that I wanted a space where everyone would be able to share this passion for food. The idea for CookingHub was born. While we worked on all aspects of CookingHub, we got the idea to establish CookingHub Foundation, which would operate CookingHub and give proceeds to charities that fight hunger. Tom the Chef Founder Published: September 29, 2023 CookingHub will be a one-of-a-kind recipe, education, and social platform for home and professional cooks at www.cookinghub.com. While many of its key functions are already available, we are still in the development and testing phase. At this point, we have just a few recipes, and not all functionality has been implemented yet, so please be patient while browsing the site. Read more about the CookingHub here. On February 12, 2023, we started a very limited first version of CookingHub, which is our first initial life test of its basic functionality and structures. At first, CookingHub only included my proven recipes previously published on CookingwithFamily.com. At first, these recipes were available only in PDF form. The latest version of CookingHub was published on 12/15/2023 and included many innovative capabilities. In the upcoming weeks and months, many more features and functionalities will be launched. Now, recipes are published directly on the web, and in addition to my recipes, you can also find recipes from other authors as well. The platform is built to cater to a larger group of creators, so it is expected that the creator’s community is going to grow. These creators will include everyone and anyone- regardless of whether they are home cooks or professionals. All are welcome to publish their recipes on CookingHub. For more information, create a profile first. At this point, recipes need to be submitted via email. One of those upcoming functionalities to be launched soon is the complete admin environment. This will enable users to fill in/edit recipes directly on the platform. You all, regardless of your skill set, are welcome to join, not only as a creator but also as a user, to enjoy all the recipes. On CookingHub, everyone has access to publish recipes and articles, have private or public profiles (coming March 2024), follow and friend other cooks, use messenger to write to other cooks (coming in 2024), share content and opinions (coming in 2024), participate in the Chart of Cooks, access recipes from cooks all over the world, and much more. And best of all, it is all totally free. On top of all of this, in 2025, we plan to introduce the CookingHub app with all content available for both IOS and Android. With CookingHub, a community will cook together, learn together, and share a love of food together. There is a lot to look forward to, and we continually check back in as we’ll make sure to keep you updated. Thanks for being patient and for your support!
