I’ve seen this site. It’s a great proof of concept, and it works perfectly well for what the developer wanted to highlight - it loads amazingly fast and there’s no bullshit. It’s just not a good cooking site for unrelated reasons, I’ll give you guys some examples:
- Lack of synonyms; e.g. barszcz/borscht, cuque/cuca.
- That bloody weird obsession to tie cuisines with governments=countries, even when it doesn’t make much sense.
- Barely any variations listed. And even if there was, ingredient-based tagging can quickly become a mess if you enable this.
I am torn by my annoyance at recipes that include a life story and my annoyance at the overused and wildly cringey phrase “based”.
OMG can I one up this: https://cooked.wiki/ Just turn literally any recipe in a bloatless no bullshit version!
For example, you want to remove the clutter from https://veganeria.blog/en/vegan-oreo-cheesecake/. You just go ahead and add “https://cooked.wiki/” in front of the URL like so:
https://cooked.wiki/https://veganeria.blog/en/vegan-oreo-cheesecake/
I’d also suggest Wikimedia Cookbook
I dig the concept, but IMO they took it a few steps too far
I dont need 80 pictures per recipe, with those dumb “all the ingredients laid out in mice en place” type pictures and shit - but I do want at least one picture of the finished process so I can see what things are at a glance while browsing.
I feel like it’d also benefit from more ways to find recipes than broad categories
