Food advice is only useful if you can trust it at the stove. This page explains how Receitas Baratas chooses topics, builds recipes and guides, checks facts and handles mistakes.
Our standards for a recipe
- Ingredients in U.S. measures, with weights where they help.
- Servings, prep time, cook time and how long the dish keeps.
- Clear numbered steps that explain why each one matters.
- Substitutions for ingredients that may be expensive or hard to find.
- Storage, freezing and reheating instructions.
Food safety
Safe internal temperatures, refrigerator and freezer times, cooling and reheating rules come from U.S. government sources: the FDA, the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service and FoodSafety.gov. When a guide relies on one of those rules, we link to the official page. When official guidance does not give a number, we say so rather than inventing one.
Money
We never present grocery prices as facts. Cost examples are labeled as examples, and we teach readers to calculate cost per serving with their own store’s prices. We have no affiliate links and are not paid to mention brands or retailers.
Health and assistance programs
We do not make health or weight-loss claims. Information about SNAP, WIC and other programs is general and always points to the official agency, which alone decides eligibility and benefits.
How articles are produced
Our team plans each topic around a real kitchen or shopping problem. We use AI writing tools to help draft and organize articles; a person then reviews every draft, checks quantities, times and temperatures for consistency, verifies facts against official sources and edits before anything is published. Photos are illustrations created for the site and show no brand packaging.
Corrections and updates
If a recipe or fact is wrong, we fix it and note significant changes on the page. Tell us at [email protected], with the article link.
