Is it fair to blame AI for the fact so many online recipes leave out details like quantity and time?

@Cassandra

Idk, but I recommend Serious Eats for recipes. Seriouseats.com

@Cassandra

Yeah, the timing is always off. It's like they don't consider prep.

To piggyback off what @Fawn said: Serious Eats is great. They have a recipe for the best roast potatoes ever.

I'd also recommend Budget Bytes; and chef John from food wishes is good too.

@TellumSiege @Cassandra

A lot of recipe writers either lie or dont pay chefs to test recipes. There's no checks on who gets to write internet recipes. Some people make up pure nonsense to sell ad spaces.

@Fawn

Great article. It's a shame the author couldn't get a straight answer from anyone.

And it's official: next time I caramelize onions I'm grabbing a crock pot.

@TellumSiege @Cassandra @Fawn I've read onions can be caramelized in a pressure cooker and oven. I'm planning on giving them both a try at some point. I do not have the patience for tending stovetop onions.
