Have you ever hesitated to try a recipe because it didn’t have a photo? You’re not alone! A great image can make all the difference, offering inspiration and confidence in the kitchen. Now, you can help fill the gaps and bring classic and modern cookbooks to life by sharing your own photos – and win exciting prizes!

It’s great to see more and more recipe reviews appearing on ckbk each week! Reviews help to identify the standout dishes in ckbk’s large (and sometimes almost overwhelming) collection of cookbooks. Reviews are also a great way for users to share their practical tips, based on their experience cooking a recipe—and quite often the cookbook author may chime in with advice too. To make reviews even more useful, we’ve now added the ability to include a photo so you can show how the recipe worked out. Read on to find out how to use this feature, and how you could win a ckbk apron and free ckbk Premium Membership for a year.

We recently rolled out automated unit conversions so that all recipes on ckbk are now available with both US Cup and metric measurements. By default, ckbk shows measurements as they appeared in the author’s original version, but if you would like to always see ingredient measurements converted to your preferred units, just visit the ckbk user settings page where you can now specify which units you would like to see.
