Meet the Hand
behind the recipes

Hi, I’m Jorden Hand - the “Hand” behind Hand That Feeds You. I’m a French-trained chef, passionate about bringing people together around really good food. I focus on making swanky foods simple, and I like to use herbs to bring out the authentic and unique flavors of each ingredient. I’m inspired by my family’s Creole roots, my great-grandma’s legacy as a restaurant owner, and the life experiences I've gained from traveling the world. I love to travel and try to incorporate flavors of the places I’ve been and those I still want to visit into the dishes I make. I like to have a good time and have been caught dancing in the kitchen on many occasions. Ultimately, I hope the people gathered around the meals I make feel cared for and have a great time. Thanks for following along on my food journey!
