  <p>Cooklang is like markdown for recipes. It lets you write recipes in a human-readable format that a computer can parse to get the ingredient list, steps, etc.</p>
<p>Recipe sites have gotten so bloated that you need to read someone's entire life story to get the ingredients and steps. I'm a big fan of storing information in plain text in git, as well as <a href="https://briansunter.com/notes/cooking/">[[cooking]]</a>, so I was happy to discover <a href="https://cooklang.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CookLang</a>.</p>
<p>I don't want to write my recipes in completely unstructured text, because then I can't do interesting things like generate shopping lists, convert units, get required cookware, etc. I also don't want to write them in a highly structured format like JSON because it would be too difficult to read and maintain.</p>
<p>I like cooklang because you can read it like a recipe if you want. I also like that you can list the ingredients throughout the steps and it automatically builds an ingredients list. This way you don't have to maintain a dedicated ingredients list and it's easier to update.</p>

<p>This is what a cooklang recipe looks like.</p>

<p>Although the text is human readable, this is what the special syntax means.</p>
<h3 id="ingredients" tabindex="-1"></h3>
<p><code>@ingredient{quantity%unit}</code> for example <code>@butter{30%g}</code></p>
<p>Simple ingredients can be specified like <code>@salt.</code></p>
<p>Ingredients with spaces can use curly braces <code>@ground pepper{}</code></p>
<h3 id="time" tabindex="-1"></h3>
<p>Time can be specified with <code>~{quantity%units}</code> like <code>~{30%seconds}</code></p>
<p>Metadata can be added in the form of <code>&gt;&gt;key: value</code></p>
<p><code>&gt;&gt;source: https://www.seriouseats.com/food-lab-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-steak</code></p>
<h3 id="cookware" tabindex="-1"></h3>
<p>You can specify cookware needed with <code>#cookware{}</code> like <code>#potato masher{}</code>.</p>
<h3 id="conclusion" tabindex="-1"></h3>
<p>Overall I'm really happy with cooklang. It was pretty easy to integrate with my static site and the <a href="https://obsidian.md/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Obsidian</a> cooklang plugin works well. I hope to collect my favorite recipes and continue to tune them over time.</p>
