I usually start with Food Wishes, Serious Eats, or the New York Times. Julia Child for French food, Just One Cookbook for Japanese food. Budget Bytes when the bank account is looking a little thin. Dessert Person when I have a lot of time and want to knock the socks off my friends.
I like JustOneCookbook for Japanese food. Most of the ingredients on her recipes are easily available. I’ve tried her recipes and they taste good. She also has recipes for ingredients that aren’t easily available so you can make your own.
The closest of that for me would be GialloZafferano. However I usually websearch multiple recipes for the same dish, to get a good idea on variation, so I don’t usually rely on a single website or chef.
Probably not a lot of Indian cuisine fans, but my favorites are showmethecurry.com, vahrehvah.com, and Ministry of Curry, though I’m also fond of tarladalal and Manjula’s Kitchen.
Depending on what I am making, but I regularly use Serious Eats and The Mediterranean Dish for cooking and mostly Sally’s Baking Addiction for baking.
Chetna on YouTube is a great resource for Indian dishes and techniques. For budget cooking I like Ethan Chlebowski, and for amazing quick and dirty technique and ingredient showcases I like Internet Shaquille
Ethan Chlebowski has become one of my favorites, his budget and healthy meal stuff is great.
Love serious eats. The food lab is amazing and probably my go to for techniques and recipes.
I have a subscription to the NYT cooking app which is also great for inspiration.
I also just love peoples YouTube recipes whether it be chef John, binging with banish, or Joshua Weissman.
I recently made the NYT caramelized shallot pasta and it is SO good. I haven’t bought a subscription yet, but I may need to get on that…
I’ve been cooking through Simple by Yotam Ottolenghi
At first I thought it was one of those “15 minute weeknight meals” books that are focused on skipping steps and ignoring technique, but it’s the exact opposite. The recipes are fantastic and I’ve collected a nice pantry of ingredients I wouldn’t otherwise buy.
Will have to check this out. We like his Jerusalem book.

Thanks for this recommendation! I’m always looking for simple and fast recipes. 99% of the time they start with “pull out the slow cooker” or “open up a can of Campbell’s”. This looks more up my alley.
+1 for Food Wishes. Chef John’s recipes are simple enough for anyone to cook and very tasty! His dad humor is a bonus too :)
Rick Bayless for Mexican food!
I love Pies & Tacos for macarons.
Made some great sourdough from The Perfect Loaf.
I use supercook.com when I want to find recipes for specific ingredients.
And of course the cookbooks and recipes handed down from mine and my wife’s parents and grandmother
RecipeTinEats is one of my faves. Tasty, wide range of dishes up my cooking alley, and a little more complex than BudgetBytes, which is my other go-to but for dead simple and cheap but not bad food.
This is such a good recommendation! I like BudgetBytes but find myself having to doctor up a lot of the recipes. I already see like ten things I want to try from RecipeTinEats.
You won’t go wrong.
Recipetineats.japan is also her mum’s blog specialising in authentic Japanese .
I’ma fan of Minimalist Baker. They specialize in meals with a limited number of ingredients that can be made in 30 minutes or less, often with only one bowl. They include meals for both vegans and people who like meat.

These recipes are that good and easy that I worship Nagi Maehashi.
