I am Hannah Quirke. I cook in a kitchen roughly the size of a bathroom, in a flat in Bristol, with one oven that runs twenty degrees hot and a hob with three working rings.
Saltbox started in 2019 as a note to myself, because I kept forgetting what I had changed. It is still mostly that, except now 6,200 people read it on a Friday morning.
01
At least. Once properly, once in a rush, once with the wrong pan, once for other people.
02
Grams and millilitres. Cups in brackets where it genuinely does not matter.
03
Two friends cook it from the written method alone. If they ask a question, the method is wrong.

Corrections go at the top of the recipe with the date, not quietly into the text.
Readers who want to, at £3 a month, and nothing else. No sponsored recipes, no brand partnerships, no affiliate links to pans I do not own. If that changes, it will say so here first.
All taken on a phone, on the table where the food was eaten, usually in the ninety seconds before it got cold. Nothing is styled and nothing is a stand-in.
If a recipe did not work, tell me what happened and I will tell you why, usually within a couple of days. That is how half the corrections on this site got made.
