About Pear Tree Cookery

Welcome to Pear Tree Cookery, a home cooking blog where we explore the art and science of cooking and baking. My name is Jessica Pereira, and I'm a PhD neuropsychology student and home cook who enjoys creating in the kitchen, devouring what I make, feeding people, and sharing my foodie experiences with the world. The kitchen is where I feel like the most authentic version of myself. Through cooking, I can clear my mind from the pressures of everyday life, connect with my ancestry and culture, and experience community. I believe that cooking is an art form that requires creativity, patience, and an appreciation of the science and history behind it. On this blog, I share my own recipes, experiments, and discoveries in the kitchen. Join me as we explore the world of home cooking together!
