Chef Riq Unseen Cuisine
Welcome to Unseen Cuisine, the audio-first cooking show where flavor has no limits. I’m Chef Riq, The Blind Holistic Chef, and I believe the kitchen should be accessible, safe, and inspiring for everyone.
Each week, I guide you through audio cook-alongs built on tactile cues, sensory tips, and step-by-step instructions so that you can cook with confidence, no screens required. Whether you’re navigating blindness, low vision, food allergies, or want a more mindful way to cook, these recipes are designed for you.
From global small plates to sauces, breads, entrées, and comfort foods, every recipe includes allergy-friendly swaps and holistic nutrition notes to help you create restaurant-quality meals at home.
This isn’t just about cooking; it’s culinary medicine, where food heals, flavor inspires, and everyone belongs in the kitchen.
Could you tune in weekly for previews, sauces, and full cook-along recipes?
