Online food recipes can be painful. A layer dip recipe can have many screens of a monumental story before hitting the ingredient list.

Then, once you read it and see the ingredients, you can tell it’s weak and the author never made it. It’s just something to get reader ratings.

Then again, some people like background and a feeling to go with it, so ok.

I do better with church and other civic cookbooks bought at antique stores. Recipes lean towards simple and most likely have been peer reviewed.
