Hey! I’m Ty. Welcome to my blog. A little piece of self-expression I call On Ty’s Plate. This is where I share both real life and real food. First and foremost, I am a food lover. So the primary focus of this site is on food; mainly recipes and some tutorials. But I’m a real person with a real stuff happening so I share some of it with you all too. I consider myself a professional home cook and amateur writer/photographer.
I’ve been a sincere foodie since way back when the “food network” was my Saturday morning cooking show lineup on Maryland Public Television. I would watch hours of shows like Yan Can Cook with Martin Yan, Julia Child’s The French Chef, and my absolute favorite—Justin Wilson’s Louisiana Cookin’. I was probably the only 8-year-old on my block pretending to chiffonade leaves with a twig! These days, you can find me pretty much doing the same. Only now it’s The Pioneer Woman on the real Food Network and I’ve graduated to edible ingredients with actual cutlery.
