# Recipe Box

|
|
|
|
This program takes a recipe URL, scrapes the recipe website, converts it to [Markdown](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax)
|
|
format and store it in your local [Zettelkasten](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUltI4v_UU4).
|
|
I use the free [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) Zettelkasten software and re-purpose it as a electronic recipe box.
|
|
|
|
The user can edit the recipe, fix errors, make notes, rate it, add #tags and [[backlinks]] to organise his/her collection.
|
|
|
|
A recipe box can be a [treasure chest](https://www.ourstate.com/a-kitchens-riches/), but you have to put in some effort.
|
|
|
|
The idea is not to have the biggest collection of recipes, but to have the most valuable one. The one with the recipes you've
|
|
personally tested and most of your family love.
|
|
|
|
Since the recipes are stored in simple plaintext files it is easy to share with your friends and family, or pass down to the
|
|
next generation years from now.

> In our age when cloud services can shut down, get bought, or change privacy policy any day, the last thing you want is proprietary formats and data lock-in.
|
|
>
|
|
> With Obsidian, your data sits in a local folder. Never leave your life's work held hostage in the cloud again.
|
|

|
|
> Plain text Markdown also gives you the unparalleled interoperability to use any kind of sync, encryption, or data processing that works with plain text files.
