Kylie Perrotti is a self-taught home cook who started her website triedandtruerecipe.com because she wanted a no-frills, no-nonsense approach to finding easy, elegant, and delicious meals to make at home. She has been cooking since she was a kid, and her passion for food continued to develop when she began photographing restaurants for several NYC-based magazines. Her site has become the go-to resource for tens of thousands of home cooks who want easy-to-prepare recipes with no novels and no life stories. She lives in Baltimore, Maryland.
