About Consomee

Consomee exists to fix two things that drive everyone mad about recipe sites: you can't search by what's actually in your kitchen, and you have to scroll past a thousand words of story to reach the recipe.

So we did the opposite. Every Consomee page is answer-first — ingredients and steps, immediately — and you can search the whole library by the ingredients you already have, ranked by how many a recipe uses. On top of every recipe we add tools you'd otherwise open another tab for: a serving scaler that rescales every quantity, a unit converter, an ingredient checklist, estimated timing and difficulty, substitutions, and ideas for what to serve alongside.

Recipe data comes from TheMealDB, an open, community recipe database. We explain exactly what we use and what we add on our sourcing page.
