The other advantages of buying a recipe book:

- you can take notes in the margins

- you can find your favorite recipes quickly because the pages are all stained and wrinkled

- you can reward the author for all the time they spent testing and honing those recipes

The real depressing thing here is the amount of whining about "wasted time" from folks looking for free cooking instructions on the 'Net. It's almost as bad as the "gimme teh codez" jerks on forums.

FWIW, I like this brownie recipe (and have purchased the book it comes from, twice): https://www.seriouseats.com/bravetart-glossy-fudge-brownies WARNING: contains even more words than the "love and lemons" page.

They’re not free, and never were. Tech bros just telling you, that you pay more, if you don’t pay in cash.
