Vaimomatskuu food blog

Vaimomatskuu food blog

My name is Jella and I’m a Finnish food blogger, content creator, food photographer and art teacher. This blog is published in Finnish and in English.

About me

I started writing this food blog in August 2013. The blog is called Vaimomatskuu, which means “wife material” in Finnish. The decision to start blogging was very impulsive – my first post was out already the next day! Not a lot of time was spent with naming the blog either… A long story short, I’d recently gotten divorced and thought “wife material” was a hilarious name for my blog. A stereotypical home maker I’m certainly not, but I sure love to cook!

As long as someone else does the dishes.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Since those early days I’ve happily remarried, but cooking is still a big love of my life. It’s a creative outlet for me, a daily source of joy and enjoyment. Cliché or not, I live to eat!

My typical recipe includes an eclectic mix of seasonal and local ingredients, lots of veggies and a creative combination of flavors. I’m an omnivore, but having lived most of my adult years as vegetarian, cooking plant based food comes naturally to me. I care deeply about sustainability, ecological and ethical issues in all aspects of my life.

I enjoy creative cooking, challenges and problem solving! Some of the best recipes I’ve created were made from random ingredients in my pantry, when I was feeling too lazy to walk to the store. When I develop a new recipe, I lean into my intuition, knowledge and know-how gathered passionately since childhood. I’m enthusiastic about all things related to food, be it new ingredients, cooking techniques or a specific dish I’ve fallen in love with. I love to research and educate myself every day to be a better cook!

Having said all that, cooking can often be an immersive process for me. This means that sometimes my posts are also a mile long! But regardless of the depth or length of my posts, the point here at Vaimomatskuu food blog is always to come up with something delicious. And to have fun while cooking it! I hope you enjoy the results as much as I do ♥

Client work

Over the years I’ve worked with many Finnish and international brands, as well as restaurants, services and even museums. The client work I do includes creating sponsored content for my blog and my social media channels, developing recipes, food and restaurant photography and food writing for client’s channels. You can see my sponsored blog posts here (in Finnish).

#TEXTHURSDAYS is back from the winter break ... wi #TEXTHURSDAYS is back from the winter break ... with an update:

There are no more dedicated Texture Thursdays.

😱?!

Don't worry! I'm not letting go of #texthursdays just yet. It's just evolving!

I will still be sharing your fascinating textures. Just not on a certain day, nor in a certain amount!

#Texthursdays has been an ambitious project for me and it's been growing and growing for a long time. 

(For instance, I've been creating these collections of "10 fascinating textures" for a couple of years now - you can find them in the @texthursdays highlights!)

I love this foodie community of ours here and really want to keep giving back in some way. However, the system I've had with @texthursdays is no longer sustainable for me 🫣

So, I'm taking a step back, minimizing and simplifying the process. I hope you can understand.

The 10 fascinating textures I'm featuring in the stories today, are the last I'm sharing with the old format. Bear with me while I figure out what's the best path forward!

❤️

Sunflower seed tofu 🌻🌻🌻 #auringonkukans Sunflower seed tofu 🌻🌻🌻 

#auringonkukansiementofu eli "sunfu" on ihanan pehmeä ja kermainen, yhden raaka-aineen tofu! Ohje blogissa nyt.

I made another tofu experiment!!! This time with sunflower seeds. Just like with the pum(pkin seed to)fu from last week, this also comes together with no added coagulant 🪄

The resulting tofu is super soft and creamy. I absolutely love it served with a splash of tsuyu and a squeeze of yuzu!

Thank you for the instructions @marystestkitchen 🫶🫶🫶
