Recipes

About

This is a collection of our family recipes

The South Indian recipes are handed down by our parents, grandparents, and relatives. Several others are foraged, mostly from the internet, and expropriated.

All of them are tested and 'family approved'.

Using and Sharing

Feel free to try them and share them.

You may use any recipe manager app (such as Paprika) to organize, make meal plans, and create your grocery list.

Share by tweeting the URL of a recipe. The recipe pages contain meta data for Twitter cards and it will show up nicely with a picture and link.

About

This site is built on Clark's wonderful Chowdown, a plain text recipe database for hackers.

Receipes are added to Chowdown in plain text, with occasional Markdown. It's a simple layout with a photo, ingredient list, and directions.

The magic comes behind-the-scenes, with recipe microdata via schema.org. This process adds special tags around each bit of content, which is what let's other apps (such as Paprika) process the recipes and create lists.

Chowdown is built on Jekyll. See, https://github.com/clarklab/chowdown for how to deploy your own site
