Welcome to the Foodture.
About.
Pepper is a community of 1 million home cooks from all backgrounds & skill sets sharing & discovering recipes from around the world.
Pepper empowers you to share your favorite meals; create digital social cookbooks; seamlessly view standardized recipes; and search the community of 50,000+ recipes for dishes based on ingredients, dietary restrictions, difficulty, and more.
OUR STORY.
Childhood friends Jake Aronskind & Matt Schkolnick created Pepper after being inspired by a group chat they were in with college friends sharing what they were cooking.
Our passion for cooking started by seeing familiar dishes, and sought to create an online community for home cooks to engage and learn from each other. We’ve now spent the last 3 years building a grassroots community into one of the leading online communities for home cooks.
Pepper’s mission has, and always will be, to improve the cooking experience. We’re so excited you found us, and hope you enjoy your experience on Pepper as much as we do!
