I think the idea is sound but there aren't enough recipes (or ones I like :p)

What I would like is something to generate those charts at the bottom!

AGREED!!
I really dont want to take the time to convert all my recipes to that format, but it is really cool.

I like the PICTURES! Not much margin for error there. I'm not into turning my head sideways to read the recipes though. Prefer the non-engineering format for my recipes. But love those blow-by-blow pictures.

*grin*

The format is actually very intuitive.

It would be pretty interesting to see a recipe for a complex dish like a 10 course meal. :-D

That could actually make a cook out of me, I would think. It makes it so easy...

I agree. I copied and pasted them into Excel, then rotated the tex so its all left to right.
