Priority Ingredient Fix & Better English Meals

Priority ingredients now carry through to all alternative suggestions. English users get meal ideas that actually fit Western kitchens and pantries.

Priority ingredients in all alternatives

Previously, priority ingredients were used in the first suggestion but sometimes dropped from the alternative suggestions ("Show another meal"). Now they carry through all three slots.

How it works now
Specified ingredients are included in all suggestions generated in the session — not just the first one.

Better meal suggestions for English users

English-language sessions now prioritize globally familiar dishes over Japanese defaults. The pantry staples list was also updated to match what's actually in a Western kitchen.

English meal suggestion — pasta carbonara with Western-style recipe

Meal suggestions updated

Pasta, grilled chicken, tacos, soups, stews, grain bowls — dishes common in Western households are now prioritized.

Pantry staples updated

Replaced Japanese-specific condiments (mirin, mentsuyu) with cumin, paprika, dried herbs, Dijon mustard, and other Western staples.
