Meike Peters

She studied architecture but in November 2013, she decided to start her food blog, Eat in My Kitchen, sharing a recipe each day in the first year of her blog. Her recipes combine German and Mediterranean cooking,[11][12][13] and Christopher Kimball, Milk Street[14][15] wrote "if you want to change how you cook—to learn new tricks—I heartily recommend 365. You may find some of her combinations challenging, but your everyday cooking will never be the same." Meike Peters lives in Berlin and spent many years in Malta. Her book 365 is dedicated to the Maltese investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia.
