Features
- About 800 foods and 2500 total recipes, ordered by most popular on top in black, and descending in popularity and opacity (based on Google Trends).
- Clicking on a food name expands a list of all NYT recipes under that name. Users can select from the nested scroll based on images from the NYT website.
- Clicking on a specific recipe provides users with an overview of the recipe: serving size and cook time. Tags of identification are also indicated and taken directly from NYT Cooking.
- Users can then read reviews of each recipe: an element of surprise and humor to the experience.
- “Learn More” directs users to the recipe on NYT Cooking.
