When I want to look at a recipe, I want to look at a recipe. I don’t want to read someone’s life story or have to scroll, scroll, scroll through a thousand “tips” or discussions of what can be substituted or added or how to serve it, etc. etc. all of which needs to be bypassed before the actual recipe appears.
