INTERVIEW WITH KATELYN OF @KATFEWD


First things first, what is @katfewd all about?

@katfewd started off as a little Instagram page where I would share my cooking adventures and document my trials and errors along the way. As my number of recipes grew, it made sense to start a blog where I recipe develop and share my favourite recipes!

How did your passion with cooking start and what kind of foods are you most passionate about?

I started cooking during my gap year in order to (attempt) to eat less instant noodles in my first year of university, and realised I had so much fun in the kitchen! I love baking and experimenting with new recipes; you’ll find me getting my hands dirty kneading dough or watching food videos on YouTube for hours on end!

I love all food — so there’s all sorts of things I make, but in general I try to eat quite healthily! I enjoy finding ways to give my favourite foods healthy twists using more nutritious ingredients. I’m also a big believer in supporting local produce and brands, which I incorporate into my cooks and bakes as much as possible!


Image

Aside from creating recipes, what do you do in your daily life?

I’m currently in my second year of university! I enjoy being outdoors and love fitness, my favourite would have to be spin (definitely have to exercise to burn of all those calories from trying out new recipes!) I also spend lots of time with my family, friends and my 14-year-old chihuahua, Scruffy!


Image

What is your most favorite creation with Niko Neko Matcha / Houjicha / Genmaicha powder so far?

This is definitely a hard choice, but my favourite recipe has to be the one I make the most — my Genmaicha Butter! You’ll find me eating it straight out of the food processor right after making it — you’ll be lucky if some ends up in the jar! A close contestant would be my Genmaicha Chia Pudding, which I have nearly everyday for breakfast!

Image

What do you like about working with Niko Neko Matcha / Houjicha / Genmaicha powder when creating your recipes?

I find Niko Neko powders blend amazingly with all kinds of milks without being powdery or clumpy, creating the perfect matcha latte or baked good! I’ve used it in everything from bread to overnight oats to tarts and it works every time!

Image

Personal tips for your recipe viewers when working with Matcha recipes.

Be creative and go all out! Matcha powder is definitely a hidden gem in baking. Not only does it taste delicious but it is also full of all the good stuff — antioxidants, vitamins and minerals! Not to mention, with its vibrant shade of green it makes your cakes and tarts look divine!
