Recipe results are pulled from a variety of recipe websites including MyRecipes.com
and Epicurious.com. Each recipe will result will show the source or name of the site, user ratings, and a measure fat and of calories. You can filter recipes by convenience, type of cuisine, occasion, ratings, course and main ingredient. Unfortunately, the recipe feature doesn’t show up for every query. I typed in macaroni and cheese as well as spaghetti and meatballs, I didn’t get the recipe results for either search term.
Techcrunch has an article about a new feature in Bing related to recipes. It looks pretty slick. Originally I wasn’t all that sure about the awesomeness of Bing, but this recent addition is definitely a good reason for me to use Bing other than image, video and travel search. Google hasn’t performed too well when it comes to recipes.
This play on words comes from a recent Microsoft advertising campaign called “Bing goes the internet“.
