About This Cookbook

• Searchable: Easy to grep, search, and organize
• Future-Proof: Plain text will always be readable

The Name

"To Serve Man" is a reference to the classic 1962 Twilight Zone episode of the same name. Spoiler alert: it's a cookbook.

Technical Details

This cookbook system generates both a static website (using Jinja2 templates) and a beautifully typeset PDF (using LaTeX). It's designed to be elegant, minimal, and focused on the recipes themselves.

Built with Python, Jinja2, and LaTeX.
