Nutrition

Nutrition figures are approximate per-serving estimates based on typical values for the ingredients used. They change with brands, portion sizes and substitutions, and are not medical or dietary advice. If you follow a special diet for health reasons, check with a doctor or registered dietitian.

Health and children's food

Articles about children's meals, school lunches and healthy eating give general cooking ideas, not medical, nutritional or parenting advice. Every child is different. If you're worried about a child's eating, growth or allergies, talk to a paediatrician.

Allergies and food safety

Check every ingredient, including packaged sauces and spice mixes, for allergens that matter to you. Recipes marked "vegetarian" or "nut-free" are labelled from their listed ingredients; always check the labels of the products you use. Cook meat, chicken, fish and eggs until cooked through, cool and refrigerate leftovers promptly, and take extra care in hot weather.

Cost estimates

The cost calculator uses example prices that you can change. Prices vary by city, shop and season, so estimates are only a guide.

History and culture

Notes on a dish's history or traditions reflect common accounts and are written to inform, not to settle debates. Many dishes are shared across borders and have more than one story.

Illustrations

Dishes and cooking steps are shown as our own illustrations in a hand-drawn style, not photographs. Your finished dish may look different.
