In north Sweden we have also only two kinds of potatoes. One is called Mandelpotatis, and then we have all the rest that noone buys.

Seriously, if you don't like potatoes or think it's boring, try Mandelpotatis (if you can find it, it likes sandy, not very nutrious earth to grow or it will get sick and die :-)

I have been thinking of a way of writing my recepies so I can process them into a database some day for easier search. I realised I would never have the energy to actually do it so I'm just switching to markdown and running a static webcompiler on them to output html with search function in javascript and upload to github. Works better than expected and have everything I need.

Sounds like you have a similar setup to mine [1]. I have added PDF as an output format using pandoc. Also GitHub actions to automatically generate a new version when I push a commit.

Would you mind sharing yours? I am always looking for inspiration and ways to improve.

Mine is just a default setup of this:

Document folder structure similar to yours.

I'm going to look through your collection, looks interesting :-)
