Foodista, The Cooking Encyclopedia Everyone Can Edit Options

[Tamar1973]

For those of you who are very serious cooks, I wonder if you have heard of Foodista and what you think of it. It's one of several food sites I regularly read.



market themselves as "The Cooking Encyclopedia Everyone Can Edit". It's basically a Wikipedia for recipes. Instead of 500 recipes for kalbi, they have only a few that people can tweak and edit to improve the recipe for everyone.

They have 4 basic categories:

Recipes: Combinations of ingredients.

Foods: The most basic of ingredients. Either as they are produced naturally, such as apples and eggs, or with minimal processing, such as salt or flour.
Cooking Techniques: Methods of preparing foods, such as baking, boiling, slicing, and braising.
Kitchen Tools: All the gadgets, appliances, and equipment you use to make meals, including saucepan, chef's knife, blender, and cutting board.

For those of you who are food bloggers, they also have an "embeddable widget that create automated links from Foodista to your food blog" which can help bring traffic to your food blog as well.

It's easy to sign up, especially if you already have a Facebook account. Check them out and then tell all of Soompi what you think.
