Thank you for building this. It looks interesting :)
I have two things that I've always wished for in a recipe manager.
1. Using other recipes as an ingredient. If I have a kickass pie dough recipe that I use for multiple dishes, I'd like to just say, one unit of <pie dough recipe>
2. Alternatives collected. If I have a pancake recipe, having alternatives like "With blueberries" and "With chocolate chips" and what not be... related, would be awesome.
- soperj 4y ago#2 is actually a good point. There's the ability to fork, but I haven't actually saved what it was forked from. Would be pretty easy to add to the recipe page. Something like "forked from", and "forks of". #1 is pretty easy to do, since it's all markdown, just include the link to the pie dough recipe. At some point I think it would be good to do cooking techniques as well; it took me a long time to actually figure out what I was missing with sourdough (drop test to see if the starter was good), so I would sometimes get really great results and sometimes really poor and I couldn't figure out why. Also want to have kind of a pantry list, where items off your grocery list get stored, that way it could warn you if you bought bacon and it's about to go out of date, I hate wasting food.
