Data Sources & Licenses

Food Safety Korea — COOKRCP01

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety publishes the “Cooking Food Recipe DB” Open API with menu names, cooking methods, categories, serving weights, nutrition, ingredients, main images, cooking steps, step images, and reduced-sodium tips. Any recipe published from this source is identified with its source name and link.

Recipe image policy

COOKRCP01 includes image links, but its dataset page does not display a separate Open Government License mark. Ministry copyright policy asks users to consult the responsible department before using material without that mark. Korean Pantry therefore does not republish those images without confirmed permission; the current editorial recipes use images created for this site.

EPIS recipe data

The Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs public-data portal lists EPIS recipe basic information as a free JSON/XML Open API. Its page identifies the reuse range as attribution plus share-alike. Recipes used from this source are reviewed and credited separately.

Korean Pantry recipes and images

The bilingual recipes currently published under the Korean Pantry editorial source include original ingredient lists, instructions, tips, and custom images created for this site. They do not reuse COOKRCP01 image files.
