Suggestion to Add Cookbook Tags to Milk Street Recipes

Asked Jun 14, 2020 by Clifford V.

Hello! As probably most members, I subscribe to the magazine and the site and, of course, have purchased nearly every cookbook you have put out (business model succeeding!). For recipes on the site, I know you put what magazine and/or article the recipe appeared in. Why don't you also tag what book(s) the recipe may be found in as well? It would help us with all the books so we don't have to thumb through them all to see if they are in any of them, and it might encourage sales of your books if the consumer sees the last 3 recipes he/she searched for is in a particular book. (and yes, I also have purchased your yearly books, but we have to wait a year for them to come out...and a magazine is much easier to misplace than a book, so I love the year end books too!)

Just a thought.

Cliff

    I second that idea: it would be very helpful if each recipe included a sort of bibliography, listing the cookbooks that already contain it. That way, if I already have the cookbook, I can avoid duplicating it in my own library of saved recipes, or having to search the index of my cookbooks to see if I already have it. Thank you.

    I am new to the website and am finding it difficult to search for a particular recipe. Is there a search box on the home page that I am missing? What is the easiest way to search for a recipe?

    Thanks. Hilary
