That would be better yes, but it looked easier (to me and = my limited skills) to access properties through Emacs Lisp than accessing t= ables. Org experts might have some useful tips.

Fle= tcher, your idea sounds great, but why not use =A0org tables as people sugg= ested for ingredients. ive started using it yesterday and im very pleased, = in example:

Hello everyone,

Since we are on this subject, a= re you aware of any package that would make an 'automatic' shopping= list based on recipes? My idea was to record recipes in this format:

* Name of the recipe =A0 =A0 =A0=A0 =A0 :tag:

1) Step one.
2)= Step two.
3) Step three.

:PROPERTIES:
:ingredient_1: quantity=
:ingredi= ent_2: quantity
:ingredient_3= : quantity
:END:

Tags co= uld be anything, be mainly things like 'breakfast', 'main cours= e' or 'dessert'. Then, with the point on the headline, (in the = file buffer or in the agenda buffer), you could call a function that would = add the ingredient to a list, or increment its quantity if the ingredient i= s already there. Maybe a function to add a random number of recipes (throug= h a filter or not) to the shopping list would be nice too, if you don't= know what to cook in a particular week.

I&#= 39;m planning to do this but my Elisp-fu is not great... Any tips of how im= plementing this? Are lists a good data structure for stocking the shopping = list, before dumping it in a buffer?
