I’m Epicurious Yellow

June 3, 2006 at 17:12 |

I’ve always wondered why there isn’t a data standard for recipes – something like vcard – that foodie sites could use to make recipes easily available for their readers. And on the client side, apps that would recognize the data for import, and manipulate it in the usual ways – to produce shopping lists, instructions for cooking, etc.

    Rob,

    The microformats community is working on developing a standard for sharing recipes on the Web.

    You can see the first step in the process here with research and documentation of recipe examples on the web.

    If you’d like to help (or encourage) a data standard for recipes, I encourage you to join the microformats-discuss mailing list.

    Thanks,

    Tantek
