How do you learn about new recipes?

[Jo Stickel]

I often watch Food Network or will read about new recipes in magazines, but I just found a 65-year old grandmother who posts cooking videos on YouTube. Here is a link to one of her videos, please support a fellow senior!

Yes there are a lot of good recipes on You Tube, That is for sure. I watch you tube, and belong to a couple of recipe groups on Facebook

YouTube and online recipes are my two best friends when it comes to finding new recipes, as is chatting with family and friends.

Many websites too,

I own a few cookbooks but mostly get a new recipe from Pinterest.

If I needed to look up a recipe, and generally I don't..I would look at something from Jamie or a few others....like Delia Smith..

Jamie's recipes' are fast and easy.,...

All of the above!

Ditto plus by experimenting. My husband is the innocent victim

If I need to search for a recipe it's the web. But most of the meals are same old same old and I know by heart. But, I would like to learn how to cut the decorations that I've had with Thai food.!!!

All of the above for me. I like YouTube the best though.

My wife watches the Food Network, and has become a fan of the "Pioneer Woman", Ree Drummond. Nearly every week we try something new, and most of it is quite good.

Over the years I've found several websites whose recipes align with my taste buds, eating style, cooking skills, and time/effort I'm willing to invest in preparation.

I prefer written instructions to video.

My daughter, internet, and just by experimenting on my own.

I loved Ree Drummond when I first watched her, her inclusion into her family life, her husband a rancher, her 4 kids all respectful and smart... so it took me quite a while to realise that the Pioneer woman can't cook anything unless she pours a whole load of spice into everything.. I swear she puts spice and hot ingredients into even Jelly ( jello) .. as someone who can't eat anything spicy due to a gastric problem, there's very few of Ree's recipes' I can cook

Have watched a few episodes myself and, like you holly, I cannot eat anything spicy. Sometimes my face is simply when she adds ingredients that I think should not be included. Agree about the kids. ☺

Overall the internet is a really good source for recipes IMO including those found on websites from - specialty grocery stores, Farmers markets etc.

I can't resist reading or watching new recipes on line but I have quite a collection of cookbooks and still enjoy using them and I have years of recipes I've clipped from magazines so I try to control myself when it comes to adding anymore to the mix.
The hubby likes such plain food and my gluten free diet makes me stick mostly to my tried and true recipes which there are many after 40 years of cooking.
