Recommendations for self hosted recipe manager (feddit.org)

Hi everyone,

I am currently using a wild mix of browser bookmarks, actual printouts, saved PDFs and screenshots to save recipes I liked and might want to cook again. Obviously this has become unsustainable over the years so now I thought I could put that into a service specialized for that and maybe also stop using Bring! as my shopping list while I'm at it, just to reduce my dependence on cloud services.

I am basically looking for something I can use to catalogue my recipes that allows me to import my various sources and turn them into a searchable uniform format, preferably with some sort of OCR.

I looked at Mealie and Kitchenowl but don't quite like how they present the recipes and their recipe parsing works only so so...

Have you guys any recommendation?

I used Broccoli for years and really like it's simplicity. There is Brassica, which should turn Broccoli into a self host experience, but I couldn't get it to work. I switched to Mealie very recently and imported all my recipes with a skript. Took me some time, I hope it's worth it. :)
