I test all of my recipes but the process depends on the requirements of a specific recipe. The goal of recipe testing for me is to ensure that the recipe works for anyone who finds it on my blog and wants to give it a go. I test every recipe several times to make sure that it comes out reliably. For example, for my 2-ingredient Dole whip recipe, I tested seven different versions over many years with multiple taste testers before getting to my final result.  I try making my recipes using different equipment or different temperatures to see which works best. There are so many variables in cooking that affect the outcome, so I need to try and find the best options and then recommend those to my readers. It's also important to me to provide substitution options so people can make changes to the recipe if they need to, for example, if they eat dairy-free or vegan. I always offer substitution options in my ingredient section.  I also pay close attention to the comments on my recipes and use those to guide me to make the recipe better. If people are struggling with something or something’s not working properly, I try to help them troubleshoot it, and add those back into the post as tips. I even regularly retest my recipes from years ago just to make sure they’re still getting consistent results and bringing me joy.
