Welcome to the kitchen

I grew up between my father’s kitchen and my mother’s table; my parents met in culinary school, and food became our family language. Now I cook for three little ones under three, and this is where I keep what works: seasonal, from scratch, and gentle on a weeknight.

From our family’s table

A chef’s daughter, cooking for three under three.

Diana’s father is Chef Tom Coohill, a French-trained chef who trained under master chefs at the Michelin three-star L’Oustau de Baumanière in France. Today he and Diana’s mother, Diane, run Coohills, their French-inspired restaurant in Denver’s LoDo neighborhood.

At home he cooked elementally: fresh produce, olive oil, salt, pepper, heat, and restraint. That is the standard behind every recipe here, made to fit a weeknight with small kids.

“The kitchen was a stage, where even lentils could dance.” — Diana, on what her father taught her
