Recept search

These search engines will let you search alomst 4000 different recipes. More information on howto search in the archive can be found on the introduction-page.

Use the unit-conversion program to convert the units given in the recipies to any units of your choice.

There are three different kinds of search-methods available: Keywords search, Title substring search and Freetext substring search. More help below or read the help-file.


Keyword Search

All keywords should be in English and without capital letters.

Enter keywords (separated by space); Ex: main_course duck


Title substring Search
Choose recipe language
All keywords should be in English and without capital letters.

Enter title substring; Ex welling



Freetext substring search

Help on keyword search

Will let you search for recipes with one or more keywords, always written in English. All searches are case-insensitive. Matches are found if all given keywords are contained within a recipe.

Preceed any keyword with "!" to not include it.
Wildcards "*" and "?" can be used in the normal sence.

Ex: "meat fruit"
All recipes with with keywords "Meat" and "fruit".

Ex: "meat fruit !garlic"
As above but not the recipes containing "garlic".


Help on title substring search

Will let you substring-search for a recipe-title in the database. You can limit your search by optional giving recipe-language. Since it's a substring search it's unessesary and wrong to use wildcards.


Help on freetext substring search

Here you can search for any arbitary words in the free-text of all recipies, in Altavista-style.

These have the normal operation:

  • Paranteses: (, ).
  • Operators: AND, OR and NOT
  • Wildcard: *
    NOTE: Operators must be UPPERCASE.

    Ex: "duck AND garlic"
    All recipies where the words duck and garlic appears.

    Ex: "(selleri OR garlic) AND duck"
    All recipies where duck appears and either selleri or garlic.
