Welcoming You to Little Nonya!

Hello and welcome to Little Nonya! I’m so excited to have you here on this journey with me. This site is my tribute to the rich and flavorful world of Peranakan cuisine and culture—a world that has been part of my heritage and my heart for as long as I can remember.

As a young Peranakan woman, I grew up surrounded by the vibrant aromas and colorful dishes that filled my grandmother’s kitchen. Each recipe tells a story, connecting generations, traditions, and flavors. Little Nonya is my way of preserving these treasured recipes and sharing them with you, so that you, too, can experience the magic of Peranakan cooking.

Whether you’re an experienced cook or just beginning your culinary adventure, I hope you find inspiration in the recipes I share. From the fragrant Nyonya Laksa to the delicate Kueh that’s perfect for any occasion, I’ll guide you through each step with love, just like how my grandmother taught me.

But this site isn’t just about recipes. It’s also about the stories behind them—the history, the culture, and the spirit of the Peranakan people. You’ll find tales of heritage, tips for mastering traditional techniques, and insights into the ingredients that make our dishes so special.

So, let’s embark on this flavorful journey together. Whether you’re here to learn, explore, or simply enjoy the stories of Peranakan life, I’m delighted to have you with me. Little Nonya is more than just a blog—it’s a celebration of culture, family, and the timeless joy of cooking.

Selamat datang and happy cooking!

Warmest regards, Little Nonya
