It's wise to approach recipes on YouTube with caution for a few reasons:

  1. Inconsistent Quality: Not all creators are professional chefs or experienced home cooks. Some might share recipes that haven’t been tested thoroughly, which can lead to inconsistent results.
  2. Missing Details: Some YouTubers might skip crucial steps, leave out ingredient measurements, or not mention cooking times accurately, which can be challenging, especially for beginners.
  3. Unverified Information: Unlike websites with editorial processes, YouTube doesn't always vet the accuracy or safety of cooking techniques, particularly with recipes that involve raw ingredients or complex cooking methods.
  4. Varied Skill Levels: YouTube caters to a wide audience. While some recipes are beginner-friendly, others assume a certain level of knowledge, which could be confusing for someone new to cooking.
It's always a good idea to double-check recipes from reputable sources or cross-reference with other written recipes.
