I recommend https://www.paprikaapp.com/, been around forever, fantastic dev and pricing model. Recipe extraction is incredible

I personally recommend against investing in this app. It was great many years ago, but updates slowed to about once a year at best, often longer. Sites broke, the author ruined markdown support, so embedded videos were broken.
There are just also free options that do a better job. I personally use Mealie, but have also heard good things about Tandoor. The export option worked well enough to get into Mealie and I never looked back.
I do miss how good it was at converting between different measurement sizes though.

How do these options deal with translation of other languages?
I can do it manually, but was curious if any send it through any of the translation engines.
Specifically my wife has a TON of Japanese recipes that I want/need to translate so I can use them. I can do it manually but doing it automatically would be awesome.
Every one of these sites already provides a print button that gives you just the recipe because they too know that the SEO spam they are forced to produce sucks

This is brilliant.
Can you also do it for amazon, so it cuts out all of the paid sponsored links for competing products and just gives me a link to the product I asked for?

I swear someone tried to do this pre-llms and they got harangued out of existence by the content creators.

I built my own personal system for this as part of a custom “meal planning” app on my family intranet. Send a link of a random recipe to it (or a photo from your phone) and it strips out the ingredients and instructions and adds it to our own recipe system.
I love the idea of recipe sites and meal planning sites but like most of the web it’s all so user-hostile now that I don’t feel bad scraping stuff anymore. Short of a few exceptions which I do bookmark and visit, they’re all just taking recipes from other sites anyway and adding paragraphs of blogspam and/or AI slop to it.

You just posted this yesterday. Why did you feel the need to post it again?

Most "user generated content" is no longer user generated, or at least not in the traditional sense. It is mostly advertiser generated these days. There are multiple competing ad agencies that poison the well on sites like this with content that is designed to look like word of mouth, but is actually an ad.

The em dash in the subject was a sign of an llm generated post and the community avoided it? Now reposted in a technical manner and getting community reaction /s, maybe

Given it’s raison d’être, why does it add a slop summary in front of the recipe, in a different language, no less?

Might be best to change that Serious Eats example URL, because I get:

Thanks for letting me know. I fixed it and spruced it up too.
