Video hosting for recipes and cooking channels
Updated: November 10, 2026
A recipe is easier to follow on video. If you run a food blog, embedding the video in each recipe keeps visitors longer and brings them back. With Dembed you host it for free, without slowing your site, and earn from every monetized view.
Built for cooking
- Playback speed: at 0.75× tricky steps are easier to follow; at 1.5× it’s a quick review.
- “Skip intro”: your opening can be skipped so viewers go straight to the recipe.
- Resume where they left off: if they pause to cook, they pick up at the same step.
- Vertical phone videos with no black bars, ideal for overhead recipe shots.
On your blog
- 1Upload the recipe video and copy the embed code.
- 2Paste it into the recipe post, at the top or next to the ingredients.
- 3Write the ingredients and steps as text: Google ranks the text and the video keeps the reader.
- 4Add your logo to the player so your recipes are recognised when they travel.
Earnings
Every monetized view (at least 60 real seconds, without an ad blocker) adds to your balance. Recipes are a good fit: someone making a dish usually watches the whole video.
Frequently asked questions
No: the video isn’t served from your hosting, and with lazy loading the player only loads when the reader gets close.
