I was reading up on Adam Schwabe‘s blog [who is a friend of a friend of mine] and found a link to the site cookthink. It basically takes keywords of things you’re craving and provides you with recipes that might be to your fancy. After throwing in “cajun chicken” I was greeted with some interesting gumbo and jambalaya recipes.

Its a very interesting idea, and as Adam points out – it uses a tag cloud to present options to the user incase they can’t quite but their finger tongue on what they’re craving. Its already got my mouth watering even more for some cajun, alas I’m lacking with ingredients.

A powerful use I see this site being used for is to find recipes when you’ve got a few ingredients floating in the fridge. Combining leftovers has provided me with greatness before, but using real recipes is usually a safer bet.
