  4. <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><h2 id="cooklang-recipe" tabindex="-1"></h2><p>This is what a cooklang recipe looks like.</p><pre
