Do too many cooks spoil the soup or make it better? Some new food sites are taking the Wikipedia model and calling on their readers to spice up or modify user-submitted recipes. Posts range from Abalone Soup with Chinese Cabbage to Zucchini Almond Casserole.

It’s crowd-sourcing in the age of the amateur chef. For more we’re turning to Kim Severson who spotted the trend and reported on it for the New York Times.
