Ingredients, then go time.

RecipeHacker is a small pile of recipes I actually cook. They are written the way I would tell them to a friend on the phone: what to buy, then what to do, in order. No childhood anecdotes, no ads, no newsletter pop-up.

Quantities are deliberately loose in places — “a glass of rice”, “lots of garlic”. That is not sloppiness, it is how these dishes work. Taste as you go and adjust.

How it is built

Every recipe is a single Markdown file in src/content/recipes/. The site is generated ahead of time with Astro and served as static files from a Cloudflare Worker, so pages arrive fast and there is nothing to keep running. Search runs in your browser against a small index — no queries leave your device.

Machines welcome

Every recipe page carries schema.org Recipe data, and there is an llms.txt for assistants that want a plain-text map of the site. Read it, quote it, cook from it.

New recipes show up in the RSS feed. That is the whole subscription mechanism.
