Gathering cooking show recipes at the Food Network

The Food Network

Modern television is a window to the world.  It takes our eyes, our hearts, and yes, even our stomachs on a fantastic journey. This culinary trip starts in our own kitchens, and ends at the far corner tables of the earth.

Our tour guides seem almost magical and some of them are legends in their own right.  Names like Emeril, Wolfgang Puck, Rachael Ray, Bobby Flay, Paula Deen and others too numerous to mention.

Despite the diverse range of foods and cultures served, the universal message these television cooking shows deliver is clear.  Try it. Experience it.  Eat it!

Most people never get the opportunity to travel the globe, but websites like foodnetwork.com provide the recipes for these great dishes so we can try them in our own kitchens. 

PageSnip lets you do much more than print these recipes and put them in a notebook.  You can file them in the PageSnip Manager, cross reference them with SnipLists and create your own fully searchable electronic cookbook in minutes.

Unlike proprietary cookbook software that only works with certain websites, you can use PageSnip wherever you find a recipe that appeals to you.  After you snip it, you can create a PDF from it and E-Mail it to a friend with the click of a button. 

PageSnip even remembers the exact location where you snipped your recipe.  This makes it easy to come back and search for another by your favorite chef.

This Snip Tip will show you how to snip a recipe from foodnetwork.com without any advertising, banners or page navigation with just a couple of clicks.

NOTE: Even though it may take you a few minutes to go through this short tutorial, the actual process of snipping a recipe on the Food Network website should take you less than 10 seconds.
