Every Recipe Here Was Cooked At Least Four Times

Twice at the stated size, once doubled, and once by somebody who had never made it. The fourth one is the expensive part and it is the only reason any of this is reliable.

What a recipe costs to publish

  1. 1
    Written and cooked by the author

    Usually three or four attempts before the method settles. Nothing is written down until it has worked twice in a row.

  2. 2
    Cooked again at scale

    Doubled, in a domestic kitchen, on a domestic hob. This is where about one recipe in six turns out to need a different method.

  3. 3
    Cooked by a stranger

    Someone who has not read the discussion and only has the text. Every ambiguity we have ever fixed came out of this step.

  4. 4
    Photographed as cooked

    The photograph is of the dish from step 3, not a styled version. It is why some of them look ordinary.

RoughlyAbout £340 and eleven days per recipe, most of it in step 3.
