I'm Christa DeMercurio. I started as a stay-at-home mom who relied on cookbooks, measuring everything and following recipes to the letter. But watching my chef husband move effortlessly in the kitchen, I knew there had to be a better way. So, I learned—studying his techniques, practicing his methods, and mastering the strategies that keep professional kitchens running smoothly. Over time, I became confident, capable, and free from recipes controlling my cooking. I’m here to help you do the same. On Cooking Like a Pro, together we share everything you need to cook with confidence, save time and money, and actually enjoy being in the kitchen—without the stress and frustration. P.S. I still reference cookbooks and internet recipes too! ❤️Culinarily Yours, Christa DeMercurio (Mrs. Chef) Email: christa@culinarilyyours.net Website Text Me! Leave a Voicemail 📸 INSTAGRAM | 📺YOUTUBE
