95: Recipe Writing with Real Cooks in Mind

Kate, Kristin and Molly venture back into the user experience arena as they discuss recipe presentation in cookbooks. They highlight the need for this section to delight not distract and prioritize form over function as well as the need to write with a specific audience in mind. They discuss their thoughts as a consumer and developer on elements like: ingredients, equipment, serving size, prep time, method, sub-recipes, headnotes and bursts. Finally, they share their advice for recipe developers on things to think through and ways to research to bring clarity and individuality to their own work.Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella Mentions Episode 91: The UX of Cookbook DesignEpisode 28: All About HeadnotesEpisode 42: How to Write Recipe TitlesEpisode 24: Genius Recipes with Kristin MigloreEpisode 59: Lerato Umah-Shaylor on AfricanaEpisode 33: Becoming the Writer You Want to Be with Andy BaraghaniEpisode 93: The Secret of Cooking with Bee WilsonEpisode 88: On Being a First-Time Cookbook Author with Michelle Braxton Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the showGenius Recipes by Kristin MigloreBrooks Headley's Fancy Desserts by Brooks Headley
