Hey! Welcome to NovaRecipes
The Story Behind NOVARECIPES
I grew up in the heart of New York, surrounded by every flavor imaginable, but for a long time, I stayed on the “safe” side of the menu. I was the person who reached for the mildest salsa and thought black pepper was a bold choice. My kitchen was full of sweet treats and gentle flavors, but I always felt like something was missing—that spark of culinary excitement that makes a meal truly memorable.
NovaRecipes was born from a deep love of bold flavors, homemade sauces, and that perfect spicy kick that turns an ordinary meal into something unforgettable. This isn’t just a recipe blog — it’s a kitchen playground for heat lovers, sauce obsessives, and anyone who believes food should never be boring.

Hi, I’m Stephanie
I’m Stephanie, a New York-based sauce specialist who traded a life of sweets for a world of Scovilles. After one accidental encounter with a house-made habanero sauce in Queens, I realized that spicy food wasn’t just about the burn—it was about a whole new dimension of flavor.
Now, I’ve dedicated my kitchen to Nova Recipes, where I help home cooks master the art of homemade hot sauces, fermentation, and global spicy cuisines. My philosophy is simple: Flavor-First Heat. Whether you’re a mild-salsa lover or a Carolina Reaper warrior, I’m here to help you spice up your kitchen with confidence, safety, and a lot of zing.
Let’s turn up the heat!
