Take a look at my website, https://letscooktime.com/ https://letscooktime.com/ and let me know what you think of the way I render recipes. There is an internal representation like this:
1. A recipe is composed of multiple components
1. A component is composed of ingredient requirements and steps
1. An ingredient requirement is a tuple of an ingredient and a quantity
I found good success using this model for recipes, specially complex baking recipes like breads with multiple repeat ingredients.
- infecto 2y agoFor myself, the one thing missing the quantity of items inside of the recipe itself. I am often using my phone to read a recipe while cooking and its annoying to have to scroll back and forth to see how much of something I need to add. I have all the ingredients out and ready, just tell me in the steps how much of a seasoning I need to be adding.
- guhidalg 2y agoYes! Phone screens are too small to show both the instructions and the ingredients at the same time. To address that in CookTime, I highlight any instance of an ingredient found in the recipe instructions and show the quantity if you click/tap on it. I could change it to just show it unconditionally if that wasn't apparent when you looked at a recipe (like this one for example https://letscooktime.com/Recipes/Details?id=ed962bb3-64b7-424a-8b07-8c2d0b64da22 https://letscooktime.com/Recipes/Details?id=ed962bb3-64b7-42...)
