There are a lot places online where you can go to find free recipes. But not all of them are good - and I know this from  personal experience. A recipe looks great so you start cooking - and then the instructions don’t match up to the ingredients. Like the time when I was making a lava cake and the instructions said to “add the water” but water wasn’t listed in the ingredients.

Even though many home cooks have wonderful recipes, they don’t always know how to write them properly. So for the sake of my kitchen sanity, I only go to the sites where I have a proven success rate. Here are my top choices.

• Epicurous.com - I also watch their TV show.

• Food Network - There was a time when I was addicted to this network. I still watch it, just not obsessively.

• Leite’s Culinary - David Leite is a successful food writer. This is his blog.

Do you have any favorite cooking websites or blogs to share? I’m always looking for new ideas.
