Many of us spend a good part of our lives trying to answer this
mundane question: "Aaj khane mein kya banega?" and looking for more
innovative ideas to cook variety food. Wouldn't it be great if
somebody offered you a collection of recipes.
Did you ever think that searching for recipes could have been much more
easier than just trying specific recipe keywords? What if the search is
made much more convenient and intuitive.
We did some study on how to make the search easy for users who are
looking for more ideas and understood that users typically look for very
specific type of recipes; for example, you might be wondering which dish
should i cook using fish or chicken, or which is the best american or
mexican cuisine based recipe? So we decided to save your time by
offering you a ready made menu and a starting point based on popular
categories like cuisine, ingredient, instead of you having to structure
your thoughts into a search query.
From now on,
"Categories" has you
covered if you find yourself looking at the search bar but not knowing
what to search for.
Search categories are collection of keyword suggestions that cover
various cuisines, ingredients, occasions, difficulty, dietary
restrictions and so on to make deciding what to cook easier than ever.
We've worked hard to give you a curated list of categories which will
help you find the right recipe more easily. You can access our category
list by clicking on the keyword "categories" shown under the search bar.
From cuisine to difficulty levels
Once you click on the category link, you will be taken to the categories
page. Here you can find all the top categories specially curated for
you. We have defined 10 top level categories so far such as cuisine,
meal type, method, difficulty level etc. If you are looking for a
cuisine based recipe, you can check out anything from indian to french.
And if you are looking to make something out of an ingredient, we made
it easy for you to choose anything from chicken to milk.
