One of the UKs leading food writers has extolled the virtues of using food blogs to inspire and entertain in the kitchen.Writing for the Times, Lynne Robinson says that blogs can encourage less adventurous cooks to come out of their comfort zones and try new things, as well as getting more experienced chefs to rediscover old recipes or ingredients.Food blogs could even be handy in getting tips on what cuisine to try when on holiday that could then be used as inspiration after returning home.Mr Robinson writes Rather than dusting off a little-used cookbook, or out-of-date travel guide, the community of food bloggers may return exactly what you need with only a few mouse clicks. Whats more theres the chance to ask questions with the real possibility of an answer from the author or a fellow reader.If inspiration strikes and certain fresh ingredients are called for in a dish, an Abode tap could be the perfect solution.
