Honest matching
Plenty of ingredient finders put the recipes that ask for almost nothing first, so the top of the list is full of one-line how-tos. This one ranks recipes that use several of your ingredients and are short of the fewest things.
Every ingredient line is read on its own. Chicken thighs are not chicken breast, peanut butter is not butter, and a recipe is never marked complete while a required line is uncovered. Garnish and “for serving” lines are shown as optional instead of hidden.
Salt, pepper, water, cooking oil, sugar and all-purpose flour are assumed unless you turn that off, and each card tells you which of them the recipe relies on.
