Over 5,000 video recipes now indexed

A growing category of recipes available on blogs and websites is the video recipe. Sometimes they take the form of a mini-episode of a cooking show; other times they are more focused on specific techniques or methods. A few are made as much for kitsch and fun (I’m looking at you, Metal Kitchen) as they are for serious cooking. 

The best of them teach you how to make a dish, or how to become better at making it. We’ve indexed the best, and we can now boast over 5,000 video recipes in the EYB Library. Some are from blogs and newspapers, and many of them feature your favorite chefs and authors like Yotam Ottolenghi, Annabel Langbein, and Ina Garten. 

Some of the videos stream directly from the Library; others can be viewed via a link. Just look for the small television icon at the bottom of the recipe description and click on it to pull up the video or the link. Use these video recipes to learn new techniques, or to just to admire your favorite food celebrities – we won’t tell.
