FAQ: Just The Recipe
What is Just The Recipe?
Just The Recipe helps you when you want to get rid of the annoying clutter on food blogs and just have your the recipe to cook. Have you ever tried to cook a quick weeknight dinner, only to be forced to scroll past endless stories, ads, and pictures before finally finding the ingredients? Enter the url of any recipe and this tool will automatically get rid of any fluff to give you the clean, easy-to-read recipe you need to cook right away.
Why was this tool created?
Ever open a recipe page and find hundreds of words about the boring background or inspiration of the recipe? We have, and it can be incredibly frustrating when your hands are messy and you just need to know how much salt to add! To prevent this, we made this website to get rid of all of the clutter of the recipe. We tried to make it as simple as possible for home cooks to get just the recipe. All you have to do is enter the recipe url and start cooking without the useless fluff. No signups, no paywalls, just the food.
How does it work?
The idea is pretty simple: we scrape the recipe website you enter and only extract the important information needed to cook the recipe. Our intelligent parser looks for standardized recipe schemas used by most food blogs. We grab the cook time, ingredients, and step-by-step directions. Leaving all of the useless fluff behind so you can spend more time cooking and less time scrolling.
