When people ask for recipes to try, how can they pick a best answer and say "I'm going to try it"?!


Question: What if the recipe they gave best answer is absolutely awful? When I pick a best answer for a recipe, I try it first!

Star Here!!! Good Point!!!
My years of experience,and I feel I'm kind enough to share my experience to help people out and try to teach people and save them money and hopefully they will try my recipe if it sounds good to them and they can have an enjoyable meal with family and friends.
Then I go to post and there is my recipe...with there own words added and there experience or opinion...
Of coarse no credit given to the original sender....
I guess that's how some people get through life...
Love to have that person in the work place with me...
Show me your Brilliance!!!

I forgot to say...I think your a pretty good darn person....
and be very proud of yourself!!!

Seems to me they are looking for a variety to choose from and the one that appeals most to them they choose as best answer.

its based on trust, you can pretty much tell if you are going to like a recipe, just by reading it. trying it out comes later.

Some people are such good cooks that they can tell if a recipe is going to taste great just by reading the ingredients and how it is cooked.

yep you should try it first Great Idea :)

I've given a best answer on a recipie on here before I tried it simply because I had all of the ingredients on hand, AND it sounded more along the lines of what I was looking for.

If someone gives you a recipie with an ingredient you don't like, why would you try it?

Not only this but you can't really expect to try ALL of the recipies answered to you in the amount of time you have to choose a best answer. It would probably be left up to vote. Then the best answer isn't really chosen anyway...no?

Most people copy paste recipes on here any ways, few and far between actually give a recipe they have come up with. You should give best answer to the one that answered the question. Also if you have worked with food long enough you can tell if something will taste good or not just by ingredients.

Sometimes I make up the recipes that I use for answers and have never tried them myself. I am confident though that after cooking for 40+ years, some of it for my family, catering and in a logging camp when I was young that I can make some good stuff on the fly. I can look at a recipe and tell you what is missing. This morning someone wanted to know about freezing or keeping a cake in the fridge till Friday. She showed the recipe and I told her right out that I would NOT eat that cake if paid to do so. She gave me best answer and told me that it was in fact terrible.
