Google Recipe Markup Tool
October 19, 2011 1:33 PM Subscribe
A few months ago Google implemented a way to mark up recipes so they are searchable by ingredients and whatnot. I would like to use this on my recipes. Is there an online tool you can type your recipes into and it spits out the marked up recipe? There is one I have seen for Wordpress but I don't use that.
Not to my knowledge, Mr Zero, although it's a great idea: I suspect that schemas are just too new. For right now, I expect you will have to add the recipe markup yourself in an editor.
Coincidentally, I'm working on a tutorial on how to add so-called "rich snippet" metadata to articles on my blog, which should be up tomorrow. I'll try to tackle a recipe example over the weekend. While the schema looks complicated, it's really not, especially if you're working in HTML5.

Best answer: I finally just created one myself. Rich Snippet Recipe Markup Tool. Suggested improvements would be appreciated.

I don't know of any microformat-aware HTML editors. You want something that will highlight the instances of the relevant
itemscopeitemtype="http://schema.org/Recipe"
itemprop=""
itemprop="" content=""
...attributes you will be adding.
It's not that much, but I can see how a dedicated editor would make it easier.
