About Us

My name is Ahmed Abdelaziz

What started as a passion has now become my purpose. I’ve spent nearly a decade working in IT, building a career around structure, precision, and problem-solving. But outside of that world, I’ve always found myself in the kitchen. Cooking and baking have always been more than just hobbies for me — they’re how I create, unwind, and express myself. I enjoy making everything from scratch and taking my time to get every detail just right.

Starting this home-based micro-bakery is a leap of faith for me, choosing to follow what I truly love. Every item I create is made with intention, care, and pride. I’m excited to share my craft with my community and hope that what I make brings you comfort, joy, and something you’ll keep coming back for.

Let’s recreate Costco’s Turkey Melt at home 🥪
Ingredients:
1/4 cup Mayo
2 tsp Basil paste
1 1/2 tsp Garlic paste
4-6oz turkey meat
2 slices provolone cheese
Tomatoes, slices
Red onion, julienne
Ciabatta roll (I used homemade sourdough English muffins)
Directions:
1. Combine the mayo, basil, and garlic paste, then chill in the fridge for 30 minutes (this is a good time to wash and prepare the onions and tomatoes).
2. Add about 1 tbsp of the basil garlic mayo, turkey meat, tomato, onion, cheese, more turkey meat.
3. Use a panini press, grill, griddle, or pan to toast on both sides and enjoy! #costcoturkeysandwich #turkeymelt #turkeysandwich #breakfastrecipes

If you follow my stories, then you probably saw my disastrous first attempt at homemade sourdough English muffins (swipe left if you dare 🤣). This first photo you see is my second attempt. The difference is night/day. The color, rise, shape, consistency. Let me be your example. Sometimes you won’t get things right on your first try. Sometimes it might take 10 tires. But when you get it right, the feeling you get is totally worth it all. So don’t be afraid to step out your comfort zone, try new recipes, and keep at it until you get it right 😊 #sourdough #sourdoughbaking #sourdoughenglishmuffins #homemadeenglishmuffins

Finally got to make chicken biryani for the first time 😋 thank you so much @mariumhosein for sharing your recipe 🙏🏽
Ingredients:
3/4 cup neutral oil
4 Medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 tbsp ginger paste
2 tbsp garlic paste
1 packet Shan Biryani seasoning (sifted, whole spices will be added for cooking the rice)
2 tsp coriander powder
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1 cube chicken bouillon
4 aloo bukhara (dried plum, be careful when eating this dish later because these still have the pits in them, which will be lost in the biryani after cooking)
1/2 cup dahi yogurt
2 russet potatoes, cubed
600ml water
2lbs chicken (I used drumsticks)
3 cups long grain basmati rice, washed and drained
1/4 tsp red food color (optional)
1/2 cup fresh coriander, chopped

Directions:
1. Sift the packet of biryani seasoning and add the whole spices to a spice bag, then place it in a pot of water on medium heat.
2. Add oil to a hot pot, then add and saute the tomatoes until wilted.
3. Add the ginger and garlic paste, saute for a minute, then add your seasonings. Mix for 30 seconds to allow the flavors to ‘wake up’.
4. Add the dry plums (remember these have pits in them), followed by the yogurt and incorporate into the mix.
5. Add the chicken and cook for about 10 minutes, then add the water, potatoes, then continue to cook on medium heat until the potatoes are fork tender.
6. Wash and drain the basmati rice, then add it to the pot of boiling water and cook for about 3-5 minutes, the rice should still be firm but break easily.
7. Add the optional food color and fresh coriander, mix, then top off with the rice.
8. Place a towel over the pot, add the lid, and something heavy to keep it all secure, and cook for about 25-30 minutes on the lowest heat setting.
9. Fluff the rice, mix, and enjoy!

Let’s make Neapolitan Pizza 🍕 Recipe below 👇🏽

Ingredients:
1kg type 0 flour (I use Nuvola Super)
650ml water
18g fine sea salt
1.5g instant yeast

Directions:
1. Add water (reserve about 30ml), yeast, and flour to your mixer, then mix on medium low speed for approximately 10 to 12 minutes, dough should not exceed 76 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Before the last 2 minutes, add the salt and remaining water.
3. Store in fridge for 48hrs bulk fermentation.
4. Take the dough out, let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, then form into 300g dough balls (I find that 250-280g is not enough), and store in the fridge for another 24hrs.
5. While heating your @oonihq pizza oven, let the dough come to room temperature before baking.
6. Stretch the dough (let me know if you would like a tutorial) and add your topping.
7. Bake and enjoy! 😊 #pizza #pizzarecipe #neapolitanpizza

Let’s make corn salsa exactly like chipotle! And I’m talking about from back in the day when their corn had a nice char to it and didn’t come prepackaged in plastic bags. Scaled down recipe below 👇🏽

4 ears of corn, husked 🌽
2 medium poblano peppers 🫑
1 medium red onion, finely diced 🧅

1-2 jalapeños, finely diced (seeds removed for less heat) 🌶️

Directions:
1️⃣ Char the corn and peppers by using your broiler or grill.
2️⃣ Place peppers in bowl and cover to sweat and make removing the skin easy.

4️⃣ Use a knife to carefully separate the corn kernels, peel the skin off the peppers, remove the seeds and chop, then add to the bowl.
5️⃣ Mix everything well, taste and adjust the salt if needed (acid counteracts salt, so you’ll need plenty of it!). Let it chill in the fridge at least 30 minutes before serving, and enjoy! #cornsalsa #chipotle
