KnowYourOnions is a place for everyone who loves cooking (or needs to do it anyway). We aim to function as inspiration or just to give that extra little nudge when your mind goes blank. You’ll find here all the recipes we love to cook. Sometimes simple, sometimes a little richer (and, don’t worry, we’ll be sharing all our secrets here), but most of all, attentively prepared to find the perfect flavour. But what makes us really different is that we are with you all the time. How?

KnowYourOnions can be reached from any mobile phone, just by simply sending a text message to us with the ingredients you want in your recipe. It is the fastest and easiest way to get hold of a recipe when you most need it: on your way to the supermarket, or for a last minute dinner party.


We are proud to announce something we’ve been dreaming about for a long time: Know Your Onions is now partnering with Jamie Oliver! We have put as much effort into improving our system as the guy has into making cooking a democratic experience. Jamie was a pioneer with his iPhone App, but now you can get his recipes from any phone. It doesn’t get more democratic than that, does it?
