Welcome to SimplyThaiUtah! My name is Carl Jennings, and this website is my labor of love, dedicated to sharing the authentic flavors and traditions of Thai cuisine. I believe in maintaining transparency and trust with my readers, so I want to share the guiding principles behind the content I create and publish here.
Authenticity Above All
Every recipe and post you’ll find on SimplyThaiUtah is the result of my personal experiences and passion for Thai food. From traditional dishes I learned during my travels in Thailand to experiments in my kitchen, I’m committed to sharing recipes that are authentic, approachable, and full of flavor. My goal is to stay true to the essence of Thai cuisine while ensuring you can recreate these dishes at home.
Honesty and Integrity
The opinions and recommendations I share on this site are entirely my own. Whether I’m suggesting ingredients, tools, or techniques, you can trust that I’ve tested and genuinely believe in their quality. If I ever collaborate with a brand or feature sponsored content, I’ll make sure it’s clearly disclosed to maintain your trust.
No Compromises on Quality
I take great care in researching, testing, and perfecting each recipe before it’s published. Every post is designed to provide you with clear, accurate, and detailed instructions to make your cooking experience as smooth as possible. If I make updates to improve a recipe or refine its technique, I’ll always note it so you can stay informed.
Inclusivity and Accessibility
Thai cuisine can sometimes feel intimidating with its unique ingredients and techniques, but I’m here to make it accessible to everyone. I strive to provide substitutions or explanations for hard-to-find ingredients and include helpful tips to ensure your success in the kitchen.
Respect for Cultural Heritage
Thai food is deeply rooted in culture and tradition, and I approach every dish with the utmost respect. I’m not here to “reinvent” Thai cuisine but to celebrate its authenticity and honor the chefs and families who have kept these traditions alive.
Reader-Centric Content
Your feedback matters to me! I welcome your questions, suggestions, and experiences. Whether you’ve tried a recipe or have ideas for new content, I’d love to hear from you. My goal is to create a community where we can share our mutual love for Thai food and inspire each other along the way.
Thank you for trusting SimplyThaiUtah as your go-to resource for Thai recipes. I’m thrilled to share my culinary journey with you and hope to inspire your own adventures in the kitchen. If you have any questions about this policy or suggestions for improvement, feel free to reach out.
