Every holiday, my sister roasts me for how my dishes turn out. This year, she asked for my famous casserole recipe because her coworkers “requested it.” I refused, because I know she’ll just take credit while still belittling me. Now she’s telling everyone I’m selfish. Am I the asshole?
AITA for refusing to give my sister the “family recipe” because she always criticizes my cooking?

NTA she can just find her own recipe
No, your sister is an asshole though. Stick to your decision not to give her the recipe. In fact, don’t give her any recipes. She’s just looking for a reaction from you.
I’m never this early! NTA
Nta. She can use Google and find a recipe.
NTA. She doesn’t like your cooking so why would you give her the recipe.
No! Ur sister is a C U Next Tuesday. And your boundaries are your responsibility. I’d ask her why she she would want to make something she’s always claiming doesn’t come our right. Sounds like she thinks she can do better so simply let her
ESH
Are you guys 5 or something? If she doesn’t appreciate your cooking stop cooking for her. Call out her criticisms in front of others.
Unless the recipe is some billion dollar trade secret it is just a recipe.
NTA. . .
after all, your cooking sucks and you would hate to inflict it on others
Your sister’s behavior makes it clear she won’t appreciate it, she just wants to brag and critique. Keeping the recipe to yourself is fair, especially if it spares you stress and frustration. Nta
NTA. Give her one with a few “secret ingredients”.
What? Basil, curry powder and oregano go so well together….😈😈😈😈
NTA. If she wants a recipe, maybe she shouldn’t criticize the person cooking. Personally, I wouldn’t allow her back to my house
NTA. Ms. Actions, meet Ms. Consequences. Your sister is an idiot, and a rude one at that.
How have her coworkers ever tasted YOUR recipe?
How is your sister’s coworker aware of your famous casserole?? Why would they be requesting it? That’s a weird one. Sounds AI ish.
NTA. She’s jealous you can cook and she can’t.
Nope. She can go pound sand.
If she doesn’t like your cooking, she can’t have your recipe, plain and simple. She can make her own, and it will be awful, and then she can get her own credit.
How did her coworkers get some of your casserole if she doesn’t have the recipe?
NTA. Your sister must be Gordon Fucking Ramsey to be criticizing your cooking. Since she’s such a great chef, she can come up with her own recipe for her co-workers. Also, I wouldn’t be inviting her to any future events involving your food.
NTA. It seems that your sister has not learned the age old lesson of “You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar”.
If she wanted you to share your recipe with her, then she should have been complimenting it and your cooking. You don’t owe her anything. She owes you an apology, imo.
Did your sister steal the dish and take it to her coworkers? How did they know about this dish to request it? God I need you guys to actually read the AI slop before you post it.
NTA, but your sister is. I’d google a similar recipe and give her that, with some alterations. Lol. She doesn’t like your cooking anyway.
