Thing 50: I'm Cooked!

It's like YouTube for cooks!

Here is a great site for all you chef's, aspiring chef's, and food burners. Imcooked.com is a web community for sharing your favorite recipe's. Got a killer meatloaf recipe? Record yourself preparing it and upload it to the site for users to see and follow along with. Want to see how people prepare a particular food or drink? Click on the Channels tab for seafood, desserts, and lots more. My favorite video by far has to be How to Clone a Big Mac by Todd Wilbur from topsecretrecipes.com fame.

But wait! Thats not all. Imcooked.com also has celebrities preparing their favorite foods. Watch Sir Paul McCartney make mashed 'taters and Christopher Walken roast a chicken.

Discovery Exercise:

  1. Go to Imcooked.com (creating an account is optional) and do a search on your favorite dish/drink.
  2. Didn't see what you were looking for? Click on the Videos tap and explore the Top Favorites.
  3. Blog about what you thought about the site. Is there a recipe you can't wait to try?
