CookThink: Discover recipes based on cravings

Ever have a craving for fish, but no recipe handy for turning your craving into dinner? CookThink can help. Well, almost. The idea is that you enter an ingredient, dish, cuisines, or other keyword and CookThink will find an appropriate recipe, some cooking tips, and a list of alternate recipes that might meet your needs.

As a keyword/tag based recipe finder, CookThink is excellent. But it's a bit disingenuous to say that you can really find recipes that meet your cravings. Because honestly, when was the last time you found any recipe online that didn't require running out and picking up a few extra ingredients? And if you've got a craving for miso soup, but no miso paste in the house, there's a pretty good chance your craving will have passed by the time you get back from the grocery store.

But CookThink is still a great site. When you enter your first word, a tag cloud pops up suggesting related terms. Or you can just click the ingredient, dish, cuisine, and mood buttons for a list of suggested tags. Each recipe has an attractive photo and list of other dishes that would compliment the meal.
