Language Overview

Cooklang is the markup language at the center of an open-source ecosystem for cooking and recipe management. In Cooklang, each text file is a recipe written as plain-english instructions with markup syntax to add machine-parsible information about required ingredients, cookware, time, and metadata.

Life hack if you want to save a random recipe in Cooklang format... Just add cook.md/ before the full URL in your browser's address bar (including the protocol, like https://), and boom—your recipe is ready!
