Not sure if I need to elaborate. I’m sick of having to scroll through an entire fucking novella just to find the recipe when I do a search for something.
I was wondering when Luke’s link is gonna pop up.
yeah, SEO hits recipe sites hard and requires them to demonstrate expertise by telling you about their family history before giving a brownie recipe
God I hate modern SEO
Just recipes.
If there is it should be called Recipedia.
Sounds like a market gap!
Personally, after I locate a recipe I like online, I import it to AnyList - app and web interface list management solution that handles recipes really well for me.
I also use AnyList to get around NYT paywalls. You can use the import function on the “sign-up/sign-in” page and it will import the whole recipe!
You’re able to get around NYT paywall to read articles or to get recipes?
My apologies, I should have specified. I use it to import the NYT recipe information only. It won’t work on normal NYT articles.
This is the way.
I import into Paprika, a dedicated recipe management app.
I also use Paprika. Great app! I use it for storing all the recipes I like.
There is an iOS app called Pestle that will pull just the recipe out of any site. It also lets you resize and convert units and makes shopping lists. I think there are several other apps that do this sort of thing too.
Second this. Pestle is amazing, and one of my most-used apps. Money well spent.
Each recipe can have variations so one site is never enough for me.
For example, I am going to make curry pickled cauliflower. There are very basic recipes and those that add more ingredients. I found three on different sites and will merge them into one based on my tastes and ingredients on hand.
I use Recipe Filter in Firefox, there is a Chrome version too. It automatically pops open a model on recipe pages that contains only the recipe.
That’s sort of what allrecipes.com is, isn’t it?
If you’re looking for a wiki style nonprofit kind of thing, I’m hoping someone else can help!
I like allrecipes because it has lots of variations for the same recipe and reviews for each one.
No, it’s not perfect. Reviews suffer from a first-mover advantage.
But…I can often get a really good idea if I search for three recipes for the same thing and then compare what they have in common and where they differ. The comments are great, too - they point out flaws and potential substitutions.
Curated recipe sites are great, but very few of them have good quality control - there are some excellent recipes, and also some duds that you really wonder how they made it in there.
