FAQ

Questions BigOven owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I search for recipes based on ingredients I have in my fridge?

    Yes! Use the search_by_ingredient capability and provide the ingredients you have (e.g., 'chicken, broccoli'). The agent will return recipes you can make.

  • 02

    How do I get the step-by-step instructions for a recipe?

    First, find the Recipe ID using the search capabilities. Then, ask the agent to get_recipe with that ID. It will retrieve the full ingredient list and step-by-step instructions.

  • 03

    Does the integration allow me to add recipes to a grocery list?

    Currently, the toolset is focused on public discovery and searching (Read-Only). Managing personal grocery lists requires user-specific OAuth which is managed directly on the BigOven app.
