Recipe search by ingredient - how to do it on the Web

Doing a recipe search by ingredient is useful, especially if you've got a few food items and no idea how to put them together. You can use any search engine you like to do this; simply input your ingredient, say, "chicken", and then "recipes". Got more than one ingredient? No problem: try chicken+lemon recipes (a little bit of Boolean search there).

There are also a few recipe search engines that let you search for multiple ingredients easily. For example:

• CookingByNumbers.com
• Supercook: recipe search by ingredients you have at home
• Cookstr
• FoodieView - The Recipe Search Engine
• Search for Recipes by Ingredient - Recipe Puppy
