Welcome to YesterKitchen! I'm Jill! I am a culinary storyteller. I love sharing dishes from the past with their stories and hopefully sparking some childhood memories along the way! I'm always cooking retro dishes and telling their history from the 1930s - 1980s! Too young to remember? Come learn history through food! Because...EVERY dish has a story! Have you ever wondered where Fettuccine Alfredo came from? What about Thousand Island Dressing? Why was fondue so popular in the 1970s? Do you love retro/vintage cooking? You came to the right place! I post new videos every week! And, there are tons of retro playlists to embrace the past! Come experience the dishes you grew up with! Iām so excited to share my passion for bringing history to life through the art of food from the past.
I have retired from YouTube. But I have 250 videos here for you to walk down memory lane and remember the foods you grew up with and their stories!
Order my book for more smiles on Amazon!
