Youtube for cooking

All right! It's Thanksgiving! Time to make special dishes for the holiday. Let's see. What should I serve to my invited guests? Let's try "Baked Pasta with Turkey and Three Cheeses". I'll just grab my cookbook and...wait a second there's no picture. No problem, I'll just look at the ingredients and...hold on. What's a fettuccine and what's a turkey cut into "julienne strips"? What do these ingredients look like? Overall, what is this meal going to look like when its done? That's where cookshow.com comes in. According to this article from TechCrunch, cookshow.com is the youtube version of cooking. The website is fairly new so only a few number of recipes are available. In the long run, I know more recipes will be uploaded so the possibilities are endless.

When I want to cook something, I don't like the idea of grabbing a cookbook and reading the process of cooking the dish. I want to see how the process is done whether be it on television, actual (like mom's cooking) or on video online. Cookshow.com will revolutionize the whole idea of cooking. Watching certain dishes made in video will make cooking simple. Personally, cookshow.com will make my life easier when it comes to cooking. I don't have to struggle to read or to hold the cookbook while I'm cooking. All I have to do is watch and listen to the video and I can easily get a clear idea of what the ingredients look like as well as what the dish look like when it is finished. To get a clear idea of what I'm talking about, be sure to check out the video within the article on flank steak. Yum! It will make any mouth water!

Moreover, Cookshow.com lets amateurs or professional cooks upload their favorite recipe. The audience can rank these recipes to see which one is the best. I think this idea is great because in this process it makes great recipes easier to find. Obviously, if the ranking of the recipe is high, that means that the recipe is excellent. Overall, I think the concept is amazing.

So, if you're like me and you want to cook something without reading a cookbook but by visually seeing the recipe being done step by step, go to cookshow.com and watch the recipe on video. Who knows? Maybe you'll find a video or two from me in the future.
