All recipes should be made with the thought of who the audience is going to be. Important details on all of the ingredients and supplies to create the dish is very necessary and for me, pictures are also a huge help. I believe that going into detail on each ingredient is important for the audience so that they can get a clear understanding for what they are about to make. While all recipes are different, the purpose of them are always the same. The goal is to create a perfect and clear guide to readers on how to create their food. Step by step instructions are believed to be the best way to get the audience hooked. Often times when people are making food by looking at others recipes, they are rookies when it comes to cooking. Having a step by step guide makes it way easier for those new cooks and they enjoy their time making their food more. Authors who describe what they are making help readers by making them eager to get the job done. If I were an author, I would describe each ingredient with as much information as possible so that the audience is more intrigued.

My favorite dish is a tasty teriyaki chicken bowl. I picked “http://natashaskitchen.com/2015/12/11/easy-teriyaki-chicken/” to show a great technique as a cook for audience members. In the video, it shows a clear step by step guide on how to make teriyaki chicken. I think it is essential for readers to have a clear understanding of how to do everything in order so making a video to provide that is a great idea.

While I think most recipes are of good structure, there are definitely some out in the world that are not easy to follow. For instance, when a recipe is out of order it is expected for the audience to know how to make the dish when most of the time, the audience members trying to make the dish do not even make food following recipes very often. Many times there are hand-written books for recipes that are given to people who want to cook. A key issue with this sometimes is that handwriting may be bad and hard to read. Luckily, I believe that there are more good recipe books, videos and ways to share recipes out there than there are bad. I enjoy authors sharing their recipes very much as I think it is very interesting and fun to make new things. I look forward to making more in the near future thanks to this class!
