Stephanie Manley

CopyKat.com is the creation of Stephanie Manley.  Stephanie started publishing recipes on the web in 1995 as a means to capture her family recipes in a format that they would not be thrown away.  Over the years she has developed many recipes that taste just like the restaurant originals that you would normally go out to try.

About Stephanie

I started cooking when I was young, very young.  I started cooking when I was about 4 or 5.  Scrambled eggs was the first dish that I cooked.  I had to push a chair up to the stove to cook.  My Mother, was a brave lady.  She commented that I would often burn myself, but she figured I would stop doing this eventually.  I grew up in rural area, and going out to eat, meant a several hour commitment for anything other than a local restaurant.  Learning to copy recipes was done so we could recreate restaurant tasting food at home.

In college I put myself through college through various jobs.  I spent several years working in a variety of restaurants.  This combined with undergraduate degree with a minor in chemistry really helped my ability to recreate restaurant favorites at home.  In addition to recreating recipes I have spent several years brewing beer and wine, so I love to experiment with food and beverages. ~Stephanie Manley

 

How do you create recipes? 

A lot of experimentation.  Recipes are developed based upon ease of obtaining ingredients, if something is too hard to obtain at your normal local grocery store it isn’t likely that this recipe will be attempted.  Recipes need to contain real food, no recipes like fake movie butter are done, as that is more of science experiment than something you can eat on a regular basis.  Also, recipes need to be from current menu items. 

 Comments

I welcome comments from people like yourself.  I publish most comments.  I do not post comments where people are rude, crude, and making comments that wouldn’t be acceptible in mixed company.  If your comments aren’t positive, but done in a constructive way, your comments will be posted. 

Nutritional Information

I do not provide nutritional information.  I am not a nutritionist, and I do not feel qualified in giving out information that is critical with those that have health issues.  Restaurant style recipes tend to be higher in fat, salt, and calories.  Be mindful of your specific health needs.

Can I use your recipes for my site, my charity book, my recipe book?

I work extremely hard in providing you with original content.  Unless noted otherwise, please link to the recipes from your own site to the recipes here.   

Can you get me a recipe for XXX?

We can always try to work on a recipe.  We like to use recipes from restaurants that are chains, or available in the majority of the country.  We attempt current menu items only.  We strive to use ingredients that are common, and free of preservatives, and additives so we can enjoy the way food really tastes.  If something has been discontinued we can’t try to duplicate something we can’t taste.  You may want to post a request on our message board, http://www.copykatchat.com .  Sometimes people have similar recipes in their personal archives.

I write other articles, and I have my own blog at http://www.stephaniemanley.com , you can see what else I am up to.
