Recipe provenance

Provenance is where a recipe comes from. Norish records:

  • Country
  • Region, when the dish belongs to one
  • Cuisines, one or more
  • Note, a few sentences on how Norish concluded this

The country's flag shows before the recipe title and beside the recipe on your dashboard.

The country name and the note are in the recipe's language, not yours. A Dutch recipe for a Turkish dish says Turkije. The note is never translated.

When several countries claim a dish, Norish picks the strongest claim and names the others in the note.

Cuisines

Cuisines come from a list your administrator keeps under Settings => Admin => AI & processing => Cuisines. Norish ships with a starting list.

  • Renaming a cuisine renames it on every recipe.
  • Deleting a cuisine removes it from every recipe. Older notes may still mention it.
  • Cuisine names show as written, in every language. Rename them to use your own language.

The cuisine strategy decides whether AI may add cuisines to the list. By default it may only pick from it.

Running it

  • Your administrator can turn on Recipe provenance for new recipes under Settings => Admin => AI. It is off by default.
  • Work Out Provenance in a recipe's actions menu runs it any time, and replaces the country, region, cuisines and note together.

An automatic run only fills in what is missing and keeps what you or the source gave. A recipe with a country, a note and at least one cuisine is left alone.

Note

Clearing provenance doesn't start an automatic run. Run it yourself, or an administrator's Enrich all recipes fills it in.
