The Serious Eats Team - Serious Eats

Location: New York, New York

At Serious Eats, we’re a team of self-proclaimed food nerds who are ever-curious about the “why” behind cooking. The staff has worked in restaurants, test kitchens, bakeries, and other notable publications, bringing extensive culinary and editorial expertise to the table. Our collective experience is what sets us apart in our rigorous product testing and recipe development, as well as our comprehensive guides and features. The team works with over 50 freelance contributing recipe developers, recipe testers, illustrators, photographers, and product testers to produce the thorough, reliable content you see on our site everyday.

We are committed to transparency in every aspect of our editorial process, from conception to publication.
