Welcome to The Uncommon Kitchen where our goal is to take you on an adventure in cooking and culture. Our passion for food, travel and cooking is the motivation for the website. We invite you to share your own ideas and experiences through our forum in discuss, try or share recipes in cook, or indulge in great kitchenware from all over the world in shop.

Food is at the heart of most cultures and says so much about people and how they live their lives. On my travels, I find my experiences revolving around food or wine, like sampling a local dish in a small restaurant I've stumbled upon, or discovering a new ingredient at an outdoor market. The desire to re-create meals discovered during traveling started my collection of international recipes and cookware.

When friends come over for a dinner party, I often hear compliments about both the food and products I've chosen to create my own uncommon kitchen. The products sold on the site are a reflection of some of the products I feel passionate about using in my own kitchen, but also a reflection of locally designed and manufactured products from around the world. I invite you to make product recommendations and share your experiences and recipes with us, to create your own uncommon kitchen.

Last, but certainly not least, it is important to realize our impact on the lives of people all over the world. The Uncommon Kitchen will to provide a portion of the revenue generated by sales of products to local organizations that promote economic stability and growth in countries that need it the most. We also feel passionate about preserving our planet for future generations. We use packaging that is recycled material and most products available are environmentally friendly.
