Because the title of the article is literally "Why do recipe writers lie..."

Don't you think that perhaps the person making the claim should have their facts straight?



I am confused.... if the recipe itself lists an inaccurate time, that is still the recipe "lying" even if another part of the book says onions take a long time?


Says the guy who didn’t read the article where the author actually identifies and tries a 10min caramelization tech she finds and discovers it too doesn’t work.

My point is that the author is complaining about lying but not following their own objection.
