The Culinary Saijiki

The Culinary Saijiki was originally an independent website where I featured blog and podcast content related to the research I was doing as I began the book. In April 2024, I decided to take down the website entirely and migrate all content here.

There were a few reasons why I wanted to shut down the site. Here they are, in no particular order:

  • Because I was focused on writing the book rather than producing blog and audio content, I wasn’t posting on the site enough to justify the cost;
  • Maintaining multiple independent websites was creating a sense of digital clutter that I wanted to get rid of;
  • Ultimately, I didn’t see the point of having an entire website for just one project that had a concrete end date.

All of that original content is still available here. You can find more details in the sections below.

The early blog and podcast work was supported through reader/listener donations on Buy Me a Coffee. If you would like to continue your support as I turn this initial work into a book, the site is still open, and is getting updated regularly with new bonus material.
