Karine Lydia Bergeron

Karine Lydia Bergeron is a French-Canadian home cook and recipe creator from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Her love of cooking comes from her parents, both wonderful home cooks who filled their home with good food, family and friends. Growing up traveling with her family introduced her to flavors and cuisines from around the world. She later spent nearly twelve years living in Cabarete, Dominican Republic, where she developed a deep appreciation for Caribbean cooking and its fresh, vibrant flavors.

Karine loves simple, generous food made with fresh, minimally processed ingredients. She enjoys revisiting family recipes, giving them her own touch, discovering flavors from different cultures and creating dishes of her own. For her, good food doesn’t need to be complicated. A few beautiful ingredients are often all it takes.

A Pilates and yoga teacher for more than 30 years and a freelance web designer, Karine has always had a creative side. But the kitchen remains one of her favorite places to be, especially when she’s cooking for the people she loves and bringing family and friends together around the table.
