I go to Serious Eats for all my recipes. If they don't have them then I've found that King Arthur has pretty solid baking recipes. Other than that I ignore every recipe that use volumetric measurements for compressible solids (most commonly cups of flour) and prefer metric measurements because I'm not American.
What are your favorite websites for recipes?

I use GialloZafferano (in Italian, but there's an English version) and Ana Maria Brogui (in Portuguese) fairly often, but I like to check the same recipe in multiple sites to get a good idea of variations. Sometimes I also use Serious Eats, mostly for Kenji's Food Lab.

Ooh those look very nice! I also try to use Kenji's recipes and watch most of his videos on youtube since he started posting again, which is usually just him cooking something with a GoPro and spewing all sort of cooking wisdom while he's at it.

Serious Eats is of course, one of the best sites out there for most stuff. Here are some other sources I use for various cuisines:
Amazing Ribs for all things barbecue. Maangchi is my go-to for Korean. Woks of Life is excellent for Chinese. Also Fuchsia Dunlop's books are great. Mark Wiens is a good resource for Thai recipes. Makiko Itoh's Just Hungry or Chopstick Chronicles are both excellent for Japanese.

yess, i was going to say Maangchi too! I'll have to check out those other sites too. I used to watch Mark Wiens on youtube(?) but haven't for years. i have been referring to Chrissy Teigen for her Thai recipes.

Just One Cookbook for Japanese food
Pick Up Limes for general "healthy" food (it's actually a vegan blog but I find their recipes super easy to convert to be vegetarian or meat-based)
The Mediterranean Dish for Mediterranean food
Also I second (third?) Maangchi! I love her recipes so much.

+1 to Just One Cookbook for Japanese. For baking, I really like Bake from Scratch —they have excellent recipe consistency and always give weighted measurements and make reasonable assumptions about available tooling & resources for dedicated home bakers (where of course by "reasonable" i mean "lines up with me personally" :P)

I've never done well with reading recipies off of a phone, tablet, or laptop, so I'm old school, and I like cookbooks. There's just something about flipping through the pages and deciding on something.
