cooking blogs

Anyone have good recommendations for food/cooking blogs (any cuisine)?

Michael Ruhlman

Yeah, I really enjoy his blog. Did you see the post the other day about curing your own Prosciutto? Mmmmm. If only I had enough room in the refrigerator.

The other one I read regularly is Alinea at Home. The blogger has set out to make every dish in the Alinea book, one recipe a week (roughly). It’s written fairly humorously, liberally photographed, and presented warts and all. When she screws something up, she says so, and tries to figure out why it went wrong and what she could have done differently. She had previously done the same thing with the French Laundry Cookbook at the French Laundry at Home blog.

I love seriouseats.

I love The Pioneer Woman’s Blog. It’s entertaining, witty and full of pretty fat and cholesterol.

Another Pioneer Woman fan here! I made her creamed spinach once and my husband said, “You’re never using boxed creamed spinach again, are you?”

Cheap Healthy Good and Casual Kitchen are also good.

Check out Homesick Texan!

In which you’ll find a link to Alison Cook’s Cook’s Tour. (More “Restaurant” than “Cooking”–but there’s Prime food porn today!)

Some great options here–thanks guys! Off to browse the food porn (and maybe find some interesting recipes along the way)…

smittenkitchen has pretty pictures and some good recipes (often ‘adapted’ from other sources). She’s also good at writing about how the recipe turned out, and what she might change next time.

I’ve recently become hooked on Joy the Baker.

101 Things Every Cook Should Cook - A Doper no less. Lots of interesting recipes.
Cooking with Amy - Very SF-centric, one of my favorites.

101 Cookbooks. Focuses on vegan & vegetarian foods, and includes some really decadant desserts.

I LOVE her blog. It’s basically food porn :stuck_out_tongue:

The writing can be a little overly flowery, but the pictures are awesome - Culinary in the Desert

Not Eating Out in New York

Boxed cream spinach? WTF?

Good Eats and Sweet Treats

Cara’s Cravings

Confections of a Foodie Bride

What’s Cooking in the Orange Kitchen

I’m another Pioneer Woman devotee. I’ll never make another lasagna recipe besides hers again. (Well, with my modifications. :D)

She is buds with Bakerella, which is pretty to look at, but contains stuff I’ll NEVER make.

I like Bakerella, I don’t have to plan on making the food, sometimes it’s just fun looking at food porn.

I like Lunch in a Box for ideas on Bento lunches. I haven’t really used any ideas yet but I want to start bringing my own food to work instead of ordering out all the time.

The Steamy Kitchen
Simply Recipes
Kayotic Kitchen
Cake Central
Chowhound
Chocolate And Zucchini
Chez Pim

I would have added 101 Cookbooks, Ruhlman, and Smitten Kitchen, but others beat me to it :slight_smile:

I like Pioneer Woman, but she gets on my nerves once in a while. If you’re a novice cook, though, she’s very helpful.
