L.A. Times Top Recipes, Take 2

Message received, loud and clear.

Several wrote to complain about the format we used for presenting The Times’ top recipes for 2008. We thought we were being smart by turning it into a photo gallery, and hyperlinking the recipe title to the recipe itself.

Um, not so much.

You wrote to tell us it was too complicated. Too time consuming. And the recipes’ hyperlinks were too utterly unobvious. At least one of you wondered why we couldn’t leave well enough alone and stick to the straightforward format we used for last year’s list. (In our defense, we thought readers would prefer a photo with each recipe.)

Lesson learned. Next year, we’ll offer all of these options. In the meantime, here’s a handy-dandy list of all the recipes, all in one place, with a photo of every recipe.

Whew!

Thanks to all who took the time to write, and happy cooking in 2009.
