This is fantastic! I'd love it if I could pair this with an RSS aggregator to get new, plain-text recipes in my RSS feed every day/week, etc. Right now I get an RSS feed of my favourite recipe sites but have to get through so much junk to see the actual recipe.

I recently went down the rabbit hole of recipe websites while I built a little side project Shopify app for creating recipes on ecommerce stores[1]. Having a plaintext version has been on my backlog to-do list forever, but it seems the vast majority of store owners aren't keen on it. It's been a massive learning experience for me; and I never realized how... bad the recipe website experience was for so many people.

Question: how do you think we, as in us as the people building the current web, can improve the standard recipe display on the web? Obviously removing the 1300 word novel before recipes is a big plus, but what else do you think would improve your day-to-day recipe browsing?

the obvious answer is to remove the insane number of enormous ads you have to scroll past or click through on your way past that novella

That's valid. I guess I haven't seen ads in a long time thanks to ublock, but makes sense for the general reader for sure.
