What's a recipe table?
A prep-table notation invented by Michael Chu at Cooking for Engineers: ingredients down the left, each step a merged cell spanning exactly what it combines. The whole recipe reads in one look, with no scrolling back and forth between the ingredient list and the instructions. The full argument, if you want it.
RecipeTables converts any recipe into that format. Paste the text, drop a link, or photograph a cookbook page, then scale the servings, switch between cups and grams, and export the table as an image, spreadsheet, or print-ready page. With a free account, every table you make lands in your recipe box: the standard format your collection never had. Link conversions join the library, credited back to their source. Free, no account needed, funded by the people who pay for Pro instead of ads.
