Welcome to Secret Recipes, featuring the best and most requested top secret recipes from the woman who started the real clone wars (sorry Star Wars) back in the early 1970's, Gloria Pitzer - The Recipe Detective!

30 years later, you can find her famous restaurant recipes circulating the web on over a thousand websites or mentions of her in 500,000+ Google searches and there are probably just as many home chef's cloning her clones which is why Gloria always said, "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." But, we thought it would be nice to have one place on the web where you could get the original, well - the original clone of the original recipe. The copycat recipe from the "Original" Recipe Detective.

You can also see Gloria's recipes on her personal website: www.TheRecipeDetective.com

SecretRecipes.com is also working to bring you other famous recipes from famous chefs and fabulous restaurants from around the country. As we add those pages, we will send an email to those who've joined our mailing list letting them know first that those areas are now live. So please, join our email list.

In the meantime, think of this website as a work in progress. We are working to add additional features and hope to have those active soon as well.

And yes, there are ads on each of the pages. I hope that the majority of which are relevant and of interest to you. If they're not, well, it's back to the test kitchen. Albeit, the test kitchen for this website is actually my Apple computer.
