About the project

Where does dinner begin?

At a restaurant counter. At your chopping board. In a field of wheat. RecipeSlides follows familiar food all the way back through the things it takes to make it.

A little experiment with AI.

RecipeSlides was put together as a fun exercise to see how quickly a simple website could be established using AI. The recipes and images are AI-generated, and the collection is here primarily for amusement and curiosity rather than practical cooking advice.

These recipes have not been kitchen-tested. If you cook any of them, your mileage may vary: quantities, timings and techniques may be mistaken, and the pictures are illustrations rather than proof of a finished dish. Use your own judgement and reliable food-safety guidance.

Move the starting point.

Each stop on the slider makes another ingredient from its parts. Pasta becomes flour and eggs. Flour becomes wheat. Wheat becomes a growing season. The final dish stays the same.

A recipe inside a recipe.

The collection shares a growing library of ingredients and processes. Every new recipe for a part adds another possible beginning to the dishes that use it.
