Recipe Breaking Issues

• Coral Chips (Recipe 9) - Using powdered sugar instead of sepia ink/food coloring (WRONG INGREDIENT)
• Turkish Pita Bread - Missing "black cumin" ingredient (mentioned in steps)
• Strudel Dough - Missing "butter/margarine" ingredient
• Duplicate ingredients - Same ingredient appearing multiple times in one recipe

Data Loading

• Load order must be: Units → Ingredients → Recipes → Steps
• Test loading - Load small batches first to catch errors early

💡 IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTIONS (Fix When Possible)

Content Quality

• Image paths - Add actual image URLs instead of null values
• Category accuracy - Review if "snack" vs "appetizer" assignments make sense
• Language coverage - Fill missing Spanish/Italian translations

User Experience

• Prep times - Verify 24-hour recipes are correctly labeled as "hard" difficulty
• Alternative ingredients - Mark clearly which ingredients are optional/substitutes
• Quantity formatting - Use whole numbers where possible (170 instead of 170.00)

Quick Checks

# Run these before loading:
python manage.py shell
from recipes.models import Unit, Ingredient
print("Duplicate units:", Unit.objects.values('name_de').annotate(count=Count('id')).filter(count__gt=1))
print("Duplicate ingredients:", Ingredient.objects.values('name_de').annotate(count=Count('id')).filter(count__gt=1))

Priority: Fix the 4 recipe-breaking issues first, then handle database constraints.
