The entire way recipes are written is trash.
"Add the flour and stir gently": How much flour? Why do I have to scroll back up to check?!
Normally, portioning out the ingredients would be the first step of the process and is all done at once.
Probably not normally, but ideally. I doubt mise en place is all that common in most homes.
How many tablespoons do you think I own?
It makes sense to have the ingredients first for making a shopping list and prepping. However, I do agree, with recipes being online, it should be a small task to include the quantity in the description too, even if it is adjustable for different servings.
Because the amounts can vary based on the number of servings, but the method doesn't.
I'm doubling the amounts anyway, just give them to me in-line!
As much as I despise the fat-tongued mockney, Jamie Oliver's website is the only one I've seen that has the ingredients and method on two tabs so you can flick between them
Dunno why they're not all like that
