Cooking results vary

Every recipe on this site has been written to be as clear and workable as possible, but results can still vary depending on your specific ingredients, stove, oven, altitude, and experience with a given technique. Times and quantities are a well-tested starting point, not an absolute guarantee.

Food safety is your responsibility in the kitchen

Recipes involving raw meat, poultry, eggs, dairy or deep frying include food-safety notes such as safe internal temperatures and safe storage windows. These notes are provided in good faith, but you are responsible for following safe food-handling practices in your own kitchen, including checking that ingredients are fresh, cooking meat and poultry to a safe internal temperature, and discarding anything you have reason to believe has spoiled.

This site does not recommend reusing frying oil in ways that are unsafe, such as repeatedly reheating oil past its smoke point, mixing old and fresh oil indefinitely, or storing used oil improperly.

Not medical or nutritional advice

Nothing on this site constitutes medical, dietary or nutritional advice. This site does not publish nutritional information such as calorie counts, and does not claim that any ingredient treats, prevents or cures any medical condition. If you have a food allergy, intolerance, or a medical condition affected by diet, consult a qualified professional and read ingredient labels carefully before cooking or eating any dish.

Regional and historical claims

Origin stories and regional context are researched carefully, but culinary history is often passed down orally and can genuinely be contested or incomplete. Where a claim is uncertain or disputed, this site tries to say so rather than present it as settled fact.
