OP here. Thanks for all the feedback so far!

I just disabled the navigation via pushState as it seems to be buggy on iOS devices. I'll put some more time on this and test it properly.

Regarding the questions with the OR/AND search. Yes, it's an OR by default but you can either force or remove ingredients by clicking on the star icon. In case you are just searching by OR, recipes with a higher "match rate" should appear on top. I clearly need to rework this part as it doesn't seem to be intuitive.

Again, thanks for the feedback!

I see two distinct use cases. One is "these are things I like, show me ways to combine them" and the other is "This is a list of stuff I happen to have in the kitchen, what can I make". Ask the user which of the two they are trying to do and the AND/OR question basically answers itself.
Came here to look for responses about the AND/OR issue - was wonder why searching for "goat meat" and "flour" suggested that I should make shortbread cookies. :)
