This contact fixes stuff that goes, ahem, pear-shaped!

Amy Kweller MS, RDAmy Kweller MS, RD

As a Registered Dietitian, I have a professional relationship with pears. But as someone who loves great food, I also have a personal relationship with pears! So there is no better way to spend my time than blogging about this lovely fruit. I will blog about pears from farm to table; healthy living, cooking, and recipes; the therapeutic benefits of pears and a wholesome diet; and how pears can fit into your lifestyle. I have a background in clinical and community nutrition, and teaching others how to lead healthy, fulfilling lives is my goal and passion – so send me your questions. My hope is that everyone who visits this site will find something that lingers long after the browser closes, and I expect that will be a deeper love of pears!

I share my love of food through books, recipes, consulting, and classes. I write cookbooks and assist chefs and fellow writers with theirs; consult food companies and restaurants on concept, menu, and event development; style food for photos, video, and books; and teach classes on exciting culinary topics. I am also the recipe editor of Kinfolk magazine.

My first solo cookbook, Pretzel Making at Home (Chronicle Books, 2013), teaches the art of traditional pretzel making. My second book, Eggs on Top(also Chronicle), just hatched in March 2014. I’m currently working on a book about Wine Food to be released in Fall 2018, but my latest book is a Short Stack Edition all about PEARS.

My cooking is driven by ingredients and people, places and times. I travel often to discover classic regional cuisines and learn new and innovative techniques. These experiences fuel creativity in my kitchen and keep me a happy cook.
