The Zer0 Kitchen
A demo cookbook for the recipes collection
By The zer0-mistakes theme
3 recipes 3 courses
Three worked recipes that exercise the whole cookbook collection: structured ingredients, baker's-percentage ratios, serving scaling, and live US↔metric conversion.
The Zer0 Kitchen ships with the theme so you can see the recipes collection end to end before writing a recipe of your own. Each one below is deliberately different:
- No-Knead Focaccia is written in grams, so it shows the ratio table doing what it is for — every ingredient as a percentage of the flour — and converts down to cups when you ask for US units.
- Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies is written in cups and spoons, so it shows the reverse trip: switch to metric and every volume becomes a weight, using the densities in
_data/ingredient_densities.yml. - Weeknight Tomato-Butter Pasta has no formula worth tabulating, so its ratio section simply does not render — and it shows quantity ranges (“4–6 cloves”) and countable ingredients scaling sensibly.
Try the controls at the top of any recipe: change the servings, then switch between As written, Metric, and US. Nothing on the page is generated at build time for a specific scale — the amounts you land on are computed in the browser, and the page is complete and correct with JavaScript switched off.
To build your own cookbook, copy this folder’s shape: one file per recipe with layout: recipe (the collection default) and structured front matter, plus an index.md with layout: cookbook. The full guide lives at Cookbook collection.
