Natural language processing for recipes (part 1)

Issue 32

November 10, 2025

Hi Siftrs,

Today’s newsletter dives into an SEO topic that usually makes eyes glaze over: natural language processing (NLP).

But we’re going to make NLP deliciously simple to understand. 😋

Why does NLP matter? It plays a huge role in how recipes rank!

In this issue:

  • What NLP is (without the jargon)

  • How NLP interprets a recipe

  • Where NLP fits in the bigger recipe SEO picture

  • How to use your understanding of NLP to enhance your writing

By the end, you’ll learn how Google and other search engines interpret post intros, main content, and recipes beyond “keywords.”

Hopefully, it changes the way you write posts for SEO from here on out!

(Siftr’s next newsletter drops Monday, Nov 24th. In it, we dive into multimodal NLP for recipes — because today, search engines and AI models aren’t just parsing text anymore, they’re interpreting images and video, too!)
