Hello everyone,

A friend of mine was telling me about a website/palm application that
allowed bartenders to enter the ingredients they had, and it would produce a
list of the drinks they could make. I was wondering if anyone knew of
something similar for food. I'm guessing there may be some software, but am
not sure, and would prefer a website if available.

I checked out the FAQ for this newsgroup for the type of website... but dont
remember seeing one in there... so any help would be appreciated.

Take care,

Dinesh Mahtani (Dino)

There is a thread headed "old question, new questions" that appeared
here within the past couple of weeks addressing this topic.

Check the kraftfoods.com site -- left side, top box lets you enter
ingredients or a recipe title. :-)

The website link at http://www.cookingbynumbers.com/search.html is great! I
also ordered the MasterCook Deluxe software from www.free-cdsoftware.com for
$7.50 too!

Thank you!

Epicurious has an enhanced recipe search feature that begins to address
this:
http://eat.epicurious.com/recipes/en...rch/index.html

Admittedly it's not terribly comprehensive at only 30 ingredients or
categories listed. You can also search by cuisines, course, and preparation.

That's one of the reasons I love Meal-Master, it does EXACTLY this. If
I have some leftover chicken, leftover green beans, and cheese that
needs to be used quickly (for example), I can enter those three
ingredients and instantly find recipes to use those items. Of course, a
big part of the reason it works is that I've been collecting recipes
into it for over ten years now, so the search capability has over 22K
recipes to look through.
