Gourmade is all about bringing gourmet recipes you can make at home
Welcome to Gourmade—home of gourmet recipes you’ll actually want to make at home. I’m Steven Records, and I created this space because I believe cooking isn’t only about getting food on the table—it’s about creating something delicious, satisfying, and memorable.—whether you’re impressing a dinner party, enjoying family time, or just treating yourself.
Why I Started Gourmade
I founded Gourmade to help home cooks elevate their meals without sacrificing taste or excitement. Too many recipes push “quick and easy” over flavor, and I wanted something different—recipes that deliver that “this was such a good meal” experience. Here, we embrace wholesome swaps when they enhance the dish, but never at the expense of bold, satisfying flavor.
Who This Is For
If you:
Love cooking and crave meals that feel special, not just practical.
Appreciate clear, tested recipes that elevate everyday home dining.
Want to bring more joy and confidence into your kitchen routine.
Then you’re in the right place.

About the Founder
Steven Records
I’m Steven Records: home cook, recipe developer, father, and husband. In my college years, I was tired of eating ramen packets ever day and found a deep passion for cooking. Since then it has been my way of bringing joy to my family, friends, and myself. Gourmade reflects my restaurant level approach to home cooking. You’ll find thoughtfully tested recipes, clear instructions, and a sprinkling of personal touches in every post.
Whether you’re experimenting after a long day or crafting a meal to remember, I’m here to help you cook with confidence—and fall in love with your own kitchen.
