HowToCook is a community-maintained collection of Chinese home recipes, written in the structured style a programmer would use. It suits people who cook at home and find online recipes vague or inconsistent. The content is written in Chinese, and the author also runs a web viewer for browsing the dishes.
Recipes are grouped by category, such as vegetable dishes, and the repository includes short guides on kitchen setup, washing up, food safety, and basic techniques like blanching, stir-frying and frying, steaming, boiling, marinating and knife work. Every dish follows a shared template, and anyone can suggest changes through pull requests.
