The pictures alone on this foodie's wiki-paradise are enough to make you want to strap on your apron and start sautéing. Anyone can submit recipes to Open Source Food, and members can rate them. Contribute 10 or more highly rated recipes, and you'll be designated a "pro." If you find an offering you especially like, you can search for all the other dishes submitted by the same chef. Though the Web has no shortage of recipe sites — like All Recipes, Epicurious and Food TV — Open Source Food has an appealing for-the-masses-by-the-masses vibe that makes it worth visiting.
