At Explorers Kitchen, we’re all about exploration – that’s why we took on the name! That means that in the quest for new recipes, we’ll love some more than others and so we created our rating system. Everything is out of 5 stars. There will be some winners, there will be some duds, but the ratings have nothing to to with the country or culture the dish came from. If you have a better recipe for something we didn’t like, let us know and we’ll take another run at it!
Anyway, here’s how it works:
| PJ Rating | How much did Patrick like this recipe? |
| PJ Make Again? | How likely would Patrick be to make this again? |
| JJ Rating | How much did Jillian like this recipe? |
| JJ Make Again? | How likely would Jillian be to make this again? |
| Time | How much time is required to cook this? Higher scores are awarded for faster recipes. Also, lower active time boosts this score |
| Difficulty | How hard is it to make? Higher scores for easier recipes. Fewer steps boost this score. |
We include both of our scores because Patrick likes just about everything and Jillian is a much more picky eater. Give Patrick all the spicy, bitter, and bold flavors! Jill wants the rich, comforting, and creamy flavors. We’re two different people and will reflect that in our scores.
From there, we average it up, add a little magic and that becomes our overall score.
We want to see how you like the recipes too! Give us your rating when you try it!
