Better, Not Perfect

Better, Not Perfect is a blog by our friends Stephanie and Nate that focuses on sustainability. While it is not "food first," it does have some great recipes, including this one for homemade English Muffins. We love their passion for sustainability and the way that they share a variety of small steps we can all take to move toward a sustainable life.

Serious Eats

Serious Eats is a well-known food and cooking website, with a heavy tilt toward scientific exploration of cooking. I (Mark) love reading their articles about the mechanics of cooking, whether it is how to cook a perfect steak or why certain pieces of equipment are either over or underrated. In particular, J. Kenji Lopéz Alt's The Food Lab column (and same-titled cookbook) are favorites of mine. I swear by his techniques for any type of roasted meat, and have successfully followed his recipes to roast both leg of lamb and beef tenderloin. Highly recommended!
