About Us
We Cook With Love is the English edition of Varíme s Láskou, a Slovak home-cooking website with more than 11,000 recipes.
We share the dishes people in Slovakia and Central Europe actually cook at home: soft yeast buns and fruit sheet cakes, Christmas cookies, hearty goulash, Sunday roasts, soups and quick weeknight meals. Every recipe is adapted for American and British kitchens, with US cups and spoons, grams in brackets, Fahrenheit and Celsius, and substitutes for ingredients that are hard to find outside Europe.
Who is behind We Cook With Love
The site is run by the same small editorial team that runs Varíme s Láskou in Slovakia. The publisher is Polac s. r. o., a company registered in Slovakia (company ID 55 951 805). We are not a big media house: we are a small team that loves home cooking from our part of Europe and wants to share it with English-speaking readers.
How our recipes are made
We want to be open about this. The recipes on We Cook With Love come from our Slovak site. Many of them are based on family recipes, reader tips or recipe videos by other cooks; when a recipe is based on a specific author or video, we name them in the article and link to them.
- We choose useful recipes. Dishes with clear steps, ingredients you can buy and a real place in everyday cooking.
- We adapt them, we do not just translate them. We convert amounts to US measures, add metric weights, explain ingredients that are typical for Central Europe and suggest substitutes.
- We check the logic. We make sure the ingredients match the steps, the times and temperatures make sense, and we add safe internal temperatures for meat where it helps.
- We credit the source. When a recipe is inspired by someone else’s work, the article says so.
Marking a recipe as edited by our team does not mean that every version was cooked by us exactly as published. When we have cooked and tested a recipe ourselves, we say so in the article.
Translation, photos and AI
We use AI tools to help with translation, unit conversion and organizing our notes, and some of the photos on the site were created or edited with AI to show what the finished dish looks like. The real result can differ depending on your ingredients, pan and oven. Our editors are responsible for everything we publish.
Help us make the recipes better
Flour, egg size, ovens and many small details differ from kitchen to kitchen. If you find a mistake, a step is unclear or you have a good tip, please write to us at info@varimeslaskou.sk. We read every message and fix what needs fixing.
