Meet Kaia Remington

Kaia represents the generation that learned cooking from YouTube videos and food blogs rather than family recipes handed down at the stove. Growing up with a single working mom meant lots of takeout and frozen dinners—experiences that drove Kaia to teach herself cooking in college when budget and health concerns made restaurant habits unsustainable. That self-taught journey gives her unique insight into what home cooks actually struggle with.

Now working as a graphic designer in Chicago, Kaia develops recipes in the margins of a demanding career. She tests everything after work, on tired weeknights, with limited patience for fussy techniques. If a recipe survives her real-life kitchen conditions, it earns a spot on For Daily Recipes. She has zero tolerance for dishes that sound great but fail when you are exhausted and hungry.

Her Culinary Philosophy

Background and Expertise

Kaia built a following sharing quick dinner ideas and baking experiments on social media, where her honest failures and troubleshooting tips resonated with fellow self-taught cooks. She has collaborated with kitchenware brands on product testing and contributed recipes to millennial-focused food publications. Her dessert recipes particularly shine—simple treats that satisfy sweet cravings without requiring pastry school skills.

Beyond cooking, Kaia runs half marathons, binges cooking competition shows for inspiration, and is slowly furnishing her apartment one thrift store find at a time. She shares her small kitchen with too many cast iron pans and a sourdough starter she refuses to give up on.
