Passionate home cooks know the feeling. You are surrounded by the best recipes, but recipe search often comes with a small problem. You have to rummage around the words (and ads) that get in the way you get to the actual step-by-step recipe instructions.

If you hate that, these three Chrome extensions can help you view the recipe neatly without the clutter.

1. RecipeFilter

Go to any food blog and this Open Source Chrome extension will identify the recipe on the page. It then extracts a copy of the recipe card and displays it front and center. You don't have to scroll through verbose explanations and rat's nest of web garbage to reach the real instructions.

The extension also works with bookmarklets that can save to your favorite recipe manager (i.e. Paprika).

2. MealClip

MealClip

Install the Chrome extension and clip the MealClip icon on the toolbar. Also, you can click the small button in the top right corner of any page that appears to contain a recipe. A neat list of ingredients and instructions will appear on the screen in a clean readable format.

It works like a readability extension that cleans up the formatting of any webpage.
