There's something about the way Chef John narrates his videos that is just friendly, easy going and entertaining. I've been enjoying his blog for some time now and it's been really neat watching his video quality progressively improve over the years. I repeatedly enjoy many of his videos but here is my short list of favourites:

Easy Tomato Sauce
Food lover I am through and through, but my approach to cooking meals depends entirely on who is eating. My feeling towards food, but particularly meals, is that it should be shared and enjoyed together with others. For me, there's a difference between enjoying treats and enjoying a meal in that enjoying treats can be social but it can be also a wonderfully private indulgence (mmm, ice cream). Enjoying meals means friendships and family, be it big lasagna lovingly assembled over 3 days or pizza ordered in. If I am the lone eater, I tend to put minimal effort into my meals. Cue Easy Tomato Sauce.
I discovered this recipe via Smitten Kitchen and oh mama, I'm so glad I did. I've adapted it to my tastes and out of curiosity, I tracked the exact time it took to make this.
Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a pot. Total time elapsed: 5 seconds.

Fridays are for Inspiration: Smitten Kitchen
Ah, Smitten Kitchen. The first food blog I fell in love with.
Deb at Smitten Kitchen is in a word amazing. She seems to be equally passionate about both cooking and baking, which in my experience, is unusual in that people usually fall in one or the other camp.
Thanks to Deb
