FoodWhimis an independent recipe site. The idea behind it is simple: most of us decide what to cook in the ten minutes before we start, so a recipe should answer "can I make this tonight?" immediately — ingredients you can scan, numbered steps, and honest timings, without a long story in front of the method.
Recipes are organised so you can arrive with a constraint rather than a dish in mind. Browse by meal, cuisine, main ingredient, diet, or total time, or open one of the collections for a shortlist that has already been narrowed down.
Every recipe is reviewed by hand before it goes live. Nothing publishes automatically: a recipe is only released once the ingredient list, quantities, steps, and timings read correctly and the method is complete enough to follow start to finish.
Where a recipe is adapted from another source, we rewrite it into this site's format for consistency. If you spot a mistake — a missing ingredient, a wrong temperature, a step out of order — please tell us and we will correct it. Corrections are treated as a priority, not a nice-to-have.
Star ratings on recipe pages are submitted by people who cooked them, and reviews are moderated before appearing to keep out spam. We do not remove a review because it is critical, and we do not add ratings ourselves.
FoodWhim is free to read and funded by advertising. Ads are served by a third-party network and are marked as such; they never determine which recipes get published or how a recipe is rated. See our Privacy Policy for what advertising partners collect.
Corrections, questions, and partnership enquiries all reach a real person at hello@foodwhim.com. If you are writing about a specific recipe, include the link and we will get to it faster. You can also browse the FAQ for the questions we get most.
