This post is inspired by a long discussion at the end of a never-fail biscuit recipe. One comment was that the presentation format for recipes is 'wordy' with too much 'fluff'. This generated quite a flurry, and prompted me to think:
This whole issue would go away if the site provided an easy way to view/copy the recipe in a print format, without all the photos and 'fluff'. Let's acknowledge that they are recipes, and most people don't have a computer, laptop, or tablet to access them at the stove or grill. Maybe, like me, some folks want an easy method to cut/paste a favorite recipe to a reference file to print later.... I know y'all have opinions...
