I’m currently wondering what to do if my favourite recipes go offline or if my mom’s special traditional dish where i have the recipe in written form gets lost. Do you have a (preferably FOSS) app to store such recipes? I’m currently trying Cooky which is FOSS but is difficult to use for cooking: you can’t really group cooking steps well and when cooking a recipe you can only view one step at a time unless you’re editing the recipe. I like however that you can tag the dishes so it’s easier to find specific stuff like vegan or spicy dishes.

    I host kitchenowl (https://github.com/tombursch/kitchenowl) on a cheap server on the internet for grocery lists, which my household finds to be very intuitive. It also has the ability to pull recipes from an existing url or input recipes manually. I haven’t used the recipe functionality myself, but am inclined to start given I already use the app on a regular basis anyway.

    I also experimented with / liked mealie (https://github.com/mealie-recipes/mealie/), which is more explicitly a recipe manager and has a nice interface with tagging and different ways to find/organize. Also a self-hosted type services, so it requires a little know-how to get going, but it looks like that dev is launching a hosted version (https://recipinned.com/) at some point as well.
