Editorial policy

Every recipe on Linen & Basil is checked before publishing: amounts, times and temperatures have to agree, and every ingredient has to appear in a step. A human oversees the process.

Lucia Moretti is a pen name — a consistent voice for the site. We do not claim awards, restaurants, cookbooks, TV appearances, or culinary degrees.

Ratings and comments come only from real, signed-in readers. We never invent reviews, testimonials, or star ratings.

Food-safety guidance (cooking temperatures, storage, and raw ingredients) follows USDA standards.
