Tutorial Use Case

Don't you just hate it when you have to sit through half of a YouTube cooking video only to realize you're missing crucial ingredients or that you needed to start marinating something...yesterday? It would be way easier if they just listed the recipe in the video description, but most don't? And once you find a great recipe and save it to your YouTube playlist, good luck finding it again. We're going to solve all those problems with our own recipe database.
