• How do you know if you're putting enough seasoning?

  The first time I do a recipe, I follow the recipe, but I make a small batch. If you find a recipe at food.com, you can scale it down to 1 or 2 servings. Then you can decide if it needs more or less of something. For me, I like more pepper and more garlic than some recipes call for. When you get enough practice, you learn what herbs and spices work together with food and you can guess how much it will need. Source: over 2 years ago

• Tutorial: Benchmarking Bark text-to-speech on 26 Nvidia GPUs - Reading out 144K recipes

  The goal: To get Bark to read 144K food recipes from Food.com's recipe dataset. Source: almost 3 years ago

• How would you rank the major food media outlets (Bon Appetit, etc.) in terms of quality of recipes, past success, etc?

  Taste of Home has great recipes. I also like food.com because you can scale down the recipes. I also like allrecipes.com, The Spruce Eats, and Eating Well. Source: about 3 years ago

• Nobody talks about how boring poverty is

  You were me at 14, 15, 16,17. I always thought, "Why bother?" But it's not like that. You can develop cheap hobbies, such as sketching, exercise, gardening, cooking. If you can access a computer, there are many free programs. I live in a big city so I am always finding ways of getting cheap or free tickets to things, but if you are 16, maybe you can get a part time job for some spending money. I used to do...

• Looking for recipes for post partum that freeze well

  Try looking at OAMC (Once a Month Cooking) recipes online. I know there's a specific subreddit too, and you can use those two search terms (intials and spelled out) on sites like Allrecipes and food.com. These will run more to being able to throw things in a crock pot versus reheating. Source: over 3 years ago

• Bourbon Walnut Ideas?

  (I posted this to recipezaar (now food.com) years ago...easy and delicious ). Source: over 3 years ago

• Allrecipes.com: what the heck happened to this website?

  They no longer have the recipe adjuster feature (which rarely worked, anyway). I've been relying on food.com a lot more. We're down to two people in the house, and now that they have a recipe adjuster that works well, it's become a much more useful site for me. Source: almost 4 years ago

• Boiling in salted water does it actually salt the middles of foods such as potatoes?

  Oh, I thought your post included a link to food.com. Someone's did and that's what I was referring to. Regardless, thanks for sharing--I'm looking forward to trying these! Source: about 4 years ago

• Why do recipe websites suck so hard?

  Checkout food.com or NY Times. Any website that just *anyone* can post to, is more of a creative writing experience. I've tried dozens of recipes from allrecipes, I've given up. Source: about 4 years ago

• 2lbs of jalapeños 🙃

  Cowboy Candy is amazing! It's a sweet and heat treat with jalapenos. I use the recipe on food.com. It's great on a cracker with cream cheese, a homemade cheese spread on burgers and brats. Furthermore, the syrup is wonderful on baked ham or roasted root vegetables. I also use leftover syrup to make great BBQ sauce. Some people even use the leftover syrup to make cowboy candy peanut brittle. Source: about 4 years ago

• Ants!!

  There are a fair number of DIY versions out there as well (one recipe is on food.com, which I found rather interesting), though one blogger tested her DIY baits against Terro and the commercial preparation came out on top. Source: about 4 years ago

• My girlfriend was recently diagnosed with gluten intolerance and has an existing soy allergy. She loves cooking so I built this site to help her and others who are gluten free with allergies find new recipes

  I just signed up. This is a great start! food.com used to make it possible to save recipes from other sites, but then they dropped that feature. Source: about 4 years ago

• Shrimp! Need to mix up my go to recipe.

  Unhealthy but the most bestest unhealthy way to consume - make a glorious shrimp melt GOOEY buTTERY CHEESY SHRIMP mmmm food.com had a simple recipe with english muffins - or get a good sandwich roll bread -- and open that sucker up and put under your broiler. Source: over 4 years ago

• Youtube food vloggers/bloggers/cooks

  If I'm googling to research a new recipe, I usually filter out all the v/bloggers by googling "blah blah blah allrecipes" or "blah blah blah site:allrecipes.com", searching allrecipes directly, or possibly checking out food.com or food52.com. Source: over 4 years ago

• Do you also have trouble finding recipes on Google? It seems like everything is full with ads and blogposts, not the recipes themselves.

  There are sites out there with generally legit recipes. Allrecipes is one of my favs, food.com can be pretty decent, and food52 has even taught me some things. Rather than google "blah blah blah recipe", I just google "blah blah blah allrecipes" or "blah blah blah site:allrecipes.com". Source: over 4 years ago

• Reading online recipes

  Finding good recipes takes more practice, personally I look past anything that says "quick" or "easy", because I'd rather take my time for better flavor, and I've learned to ignore most of the first couple sites that come up in the searches, yummly and food.com come to mind, but I've found great recipes on food.com too, so it's often a bit of luck.

• Favorite coleslaw?

  Luby's Spanish Cole Slaw, you can make it yourself pretty easily; food.com has the recipe. Source: over 4 years ago

• Vegan sour cream that doesn’t taste awful?

  But I also make my own, and it's similar to the one posted elsewhere on this thread from food.com. Sometimes I add probiotics and let it sit out on the counter a day or so, but I can't tell if it actually makes a difference because I've never made a control batch and a probiotic batch at the same time. Maybe ... I'll do that next time I need to make some. Source: over 4 years ago

• Lets talk about ENS - Ethereum based domain names

  Currently, it seems like a good time to buy an ENS domain, the same way that years ago was a good time to buy popular .COM domains. (Domains like internet.com, food.com etc). Source: over 4 years ago

• Issues with returning a Boolean value from Function

  Essentially the script scrapes a food.com recipe, checks if the recipe is already in a .txt file. If it is not already in the list, it will add the recipe. Source: almost 5 years ago

• .crypto domain. Mistake?

  I think you screwed yourself this sounds a lot like those ppl buying cars.com, food.com, movies.com domains when the internet took off. Source: almost 5 years ago
