Where are the recipes?

I've found some scattered around. I've also read posts where one person was talking about another persons recipe. Is there a central location for recipes?

Thanks

There is no central location for recipes.  I've had the same problem.  I have been printing or emailing myself the recipes as I've found them.  Floyd, the founder, owner, webmaster of this site has written that it is too unwieldy to maintain a recipe archive.  I'm grateful he spends time keeping the site going, period.

I have no good suggestions for searching either.  I just keep entering keywords and hoping for the best.

... and also discussed here.

In brief: I've intentionally de-emphasized recipe and recipe searching because 1) there are a gagillion recipe archives already out there bigger and better than ours could ever be and 2) bread baking is more about process than recipe. That said, the amount of content on this site has gotten unwieldy and we need a better way to call out the gems. An effort is underway to do something about, but life, work and family have a funny way of cutting into the time would has available to work on projects like this. Your patience is appreciated.
