Hello and welcome! I’m Hannah, the cook, writer, and photographer behind MiddleEastSector.com—a food blog dedicated to celebrating the rich, vibrant flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine and beyond.

My love for cooking began in my family’s kitchen, where I grew up watching my [mother/grandmother] prepare fragrant stews, freshly baked breads, and spice-infused dishes that filled our home with warmth. Those early memories ignited my passion for traditional cooking, authentic ingredients, and the stories behind every recipe.

In 2019, I decided to share this passion with the world by creating MiddleEastSector, where I explore:

• Classic Middle Eastern dishes (from Lebanese mezze to Persian kebabs and Egyptian street food).
• Modern twists on traditional recipes—because food should evolve while staying true to its roots.
• Healthier adaptations of beloved meals, because balance is key in every kitchen.
• Culinary influences from my travels, family heritage, and the diverse food cultures I’ve encountered.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of:

🍽️ Collaborating with local chefs and home cooks to preserve authentic techniques.
📖 Developing and testing hundreds of recipes to ensure they’re approachable yet full of flavor.
📸 Capturing the beauty of Middle Eastern cuisine through my photography—because we eat with our eyes first!

My goal is simple: to inspire you to cook with confidence, explore new flavors, and create unforgettable meals for the people you love. Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just starting out, there’s always something delicious to discover here.

Thank you for being part of this journey. If you enjoy my recipes, I’d be thrilled if you shared them with friends, left a comment, or connected with me via Email:[email protected] . Let’s keep the tradition alive—one dish at a time!

With love and good food,
Hannah
