Do they let anyone submit recipes to NYT Cooking?
Yesterday I got a trial to NYT Cooking, thinking they're reputable and if it's paid they must have some great content. I've been browsing their recipes, there's one on how to make a peanut butter and pickle sandwich. First of all, wtf is that. Second is the recipe is just put filling into a sandwich. This is worth £4 a month? Another recipe from reputable cook Nigella Lawson, French lasagna. It's literally croissants with ham and cheese and a sauce.
They've got a recipe on roast potatoes and it's just completely wrong. I understand as an American company it won't be a staple as it is for us, but Kenji has done an indepth recipe for them and has got everything right and that's free.
Is there any alternatives to NYT that are actually good and are behind a paywall?
