MyCookBot

MyCookBot's own bio states its purpose directly: a culinary bot designed to search for recipes by dish name or ingredients. According to multiple bot-directory listings, the flow starts with picking an interface language — English or Russian — before you enter a partial dish name or ingredient and get a matching recipe back.

That upfront language choice is a small but genuine convenience for a bilingual audience, since it sets expectations for the rest of the interaction rather than mixing languages mid-conversation. It's developed by dynbot.ru, giving it an identifiable maintainer rather than being a completely anonymous script.

The bot keeps its scope narrow — search and retrieve, without extras like meal planning, nutritional information, or ingredient-substitution suggestions. If you want a straightforward "search a recipe by name or ingredient, in the language I prefer" tool without additional features to learn, this is one of the more approachable options in the category.
