I make the occasional cooking video. The longest is like seven minutes, the rest hovers around the three minute mark. I don’t even know how other people drag videos out that long. Ingredients, preparation, a bad joke or two, done. Then again I’m doing it for fun and don’t want to waste peoples time, they could be starving.
If this is an ad it worked
Nope, sorry if it seemed like that.
I personally have mixed feelings about “fluff” content in recipes. If it’s a rundown of the origins and history of the dish, its evolution, and variations, I’m usually very interested in that as it can and sometimes does have a bearing on how I may want to customize the recipe, or if nothing else, educational content on the history of food is nice. Obviously I appreciate a to the point recipe too, just saying I personally don’t mind a bit of context and history. If it’s just telling a story about your personal connection to the food though, I think we can stand to skip that or at the very least move it to a dedicated bonus section after the recipe itself.
Oh yes, absolutely! I love doing a bit of research when I’m doing a recipe. I’ve got a couple of cooking books from the 19th century which are a great source for inspiration and show how dishes evolved, as you say. I’ll include that in the videos too with traditional recipes, but that usually doesn’t take up much time.
Research and use Sponsorblock
Sponsorblock + Adblock is a must nowadays. And occasionally participating by submitting segments to sponsorblock, if you can, is a nice way to help.
Personally I’ve contributed segments (highlights and sponsor mostly) recently and the stats are somewhat disturbing in the sheer quantity of life time savings:
