About From Ella’s Pan
From Ella’s Pan is a small, independent cooking site focused on clear instructions, approachable ingredients, and repeatable results. Every post is tested in real home kitchens and written for busy cooks who want dinner to just work.
Our Mission
Cook better at home with dependable, cozy dishes and clear guidance.
- Teach practical skills—timing, texture cues, and safe substitutions.
- Keep ingredients accessible and affordable.
- Offer adjustments for dietary needs whenever feasible.
Editorial & Testing Standards
Quality controls we apply to every post.
- Research & planning. We review traditional methods and modern shortcuts, then draft test notes.
- Kitchen testing. Each dish is cooked at least twice by the primary author using home equipment.
- Cross-test & timing. An editor verifies times, yields, and doneness cues.
- Photos & clarity edits. We shoot process or finished shots; we rewrite until steps are skimmable.
- Nutritional estimate. When provided, it’s automatically calculated and may vary by brand and portion.
- Post-publish maintenance. We review comments, add FAQs, and retest seasonally when needed.
Corrections: If you spot an error, contact us on the contact page. We correct factual issues promptly and note significant changes in the post.
Ingredients, Measurements & Equipment
- Measurements. We use U.S. cups/teaspoons and grams when precision matters. Salt defaults to kosher unless noted.
- Ingredient swaps. We list tested substitutions in the post. Unlisted swaps may change texture or timing.
- Pan sizes & ovens. Standard home ovens are assumed. If convection or air fryer settings differ, we note it.
- Food safety. Temperature cues are cited for meats and custards where relevant.
Accessibility & Community
We want everyone to feel welcome and supported.
- Step photos and bullet steps where useful for visual learners.
- Alt text on images and sensible link labels.
- Comment guidelines: be kind, stay on topic, and share what worked. We remove abusive or promotional posts.
