About Simmer & Spoon
A small, independent home-cooking website for people who want dinner to turn out right without a lot of fuss.
What we do
Simmer & Spoon publishes everyday American home-cooking recipes: weeknight dinners, soups and stews, slow cooker meals, holiday sides and simple baking. There are 216 recipes on the site today across 18 categories, and every one of them is free to read in full.
How we write recipes
- Home kitchen, home equipment. Recipes are written for a standard home stove and oven with ordinary pans. A few need a specific tool, such as a waffle iron or a springform pan; the directions mention it.
- Supermarket ingredients. We use ingredients you can find in a regular US grocery store and suggest swaps where it helps.
- Realistic times. Prep and cook times are estimates for a home cook, and hands-off time (like rising or slow cooking) is included in the total.
- Food safety. We include safe internal temperatures for poultry, pork, ground meat and fish, based on USDA guidance.
- Nutrition estimates. Nutrition figures are calculated estimates per serving, not lab-tested values.
How the site is funded
The site is paid for by commissions: when you buy a recommended cookbook or tool on Amazon through our links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. You never need to buy anything to use a recipe, and there are no third-party ads on the site.
Corrections
If something in a recipe does not work for you, or you spot a mistake, please tell us. We review it and correct the recipe.
