Tandoor recipe layout can feel awkward for everyday recipes
After moved to s, Tandoor became an easy replacement to set up. The harder part is deciding how recipes should be written and organized inside the app. Tandoor seems designed to connect each cooking step with the ingredients used in that step.
That can make Step 1 appear awkwardly beside the ingredient list instead of placing the instructions clearly below it. Putting the whole recipe into Step 1 keeps together, but it works against the app’s intended structure. Many cookbooks and recipe blogs use a simpler layout: all ingredients first, then all instructions underneath.
Tandoor’s recipe importer also appears to organize imported recipes closer to that familiar ingredient-list style than to strict step-by-step ingredient matching.
Key points
- ’s s pushed the move to Tandoor.
- Tandoor was easy to set up.
- Tandoor appears to favor linking ingredients to individual cooking steps.
