Recipe websites are some of the worst things on the web these days, with autoplaying videos, ads, newsletter box, cookie notice, while the actual recipe is buried down after a bunch of useless preamble... I tested this foodmarklet in a few places and so far it seems to work amazingly. Thank you for sharing!

Kagi.com, a $10/month search engine, has "lenses" that "focus" your search. One of the lenses is "recipe sites that are high quality and don't have loads of useless crap"

I've taken to copy-pasting recipes into a google doc and then cleaning up the formatting if I use it more than once or twice.

In the spirit of bookmarklets, you can bookmark this instead: <javascript:"%3Chtml contenteditable%3E">

This changes the current page into a blank rich text editor where you can paste the recipe instead, which eliminates the Google Docs dependency.

Agreed.

I have one I use on my iPhone that shows page source. Comes in handy sometimes.

javascript:(function()%7Bvar%20a=window.open('about:blank').document;a.write('%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E%3Chtml%3E%3Chead%3E%3Ctitle%3ESource%20of%20'+location.href+'%3C/title%3E%3Cmeta%20name=%22viewport%22%20content=%22width=device-width%22%20/%3E%3C/head%3E%3Cbody%3E%3C/body%3E%3C/html%3E');a.close();var%20b=a.body.appendChild(a.createElement('pre'));b.style.overflow='auto';b.style.whiteSpace='pre-wrap';b.appendChild(a.createTextNode(document.documentElement.innerHTML))%7D)();

this is awesome! I've added the page title to the source:

   javascript:!function(){var e=window.open("","_blank");e.document.write("<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>Source of "+location.href+"</title><meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0'></head><body><pre></pre></body></html>"),e.document.body.querySelector("pre").textContent=document.documentElement.outerHTML,e.document.close()}();
