[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I send you to the comments section. I have never had a successful NYT recipe without reading what the commenters have to say. Their recipes are kind of skeleton outlines to be followed loosely. The commentary is great though, so listen to how they tweak things, they're generally right.[/quote]

This! It is so helpful to read the comments.[/quote]
Exactly. Especially the comments marked “Helpful” - they are actually helpful!  Very different from the thousands of comments on All Recipes or wherever that come from people who changed every ingredient and then reported that it didn’t turn out as expected. [/quote]

They are helpful but sometimes they are like “I made it exactly as written but I substituted lamb for chicken and shallots for onions and added extra chicken broth as well as a few anchovies for umami.”

[/quote]

This is also true. There are also very very arrogant commenters who don't so much suggest their modifications, but command them and imply that the dish is not worth making without them. [/quote]
