What I’m trying to do
Is there a way to get only certain words from a todo checklist item into my Task list?
For example, I have an ingredient list for a Cake recipe:
- 100g flour
- 50g butter
- 2 eggs
But I only want the following to appear in the Task list (“Shopping List”) so I can check them off:
- flour
- butter
- eggs
I have a separate note called “Pantry” in which I have a list of the ingredients that might be available in my kitchen (e.g. “flour”, “butter”, “eggs”). If I already own an ingredient like “flour”, I don’t need it to appear on my Shopping List. I want to be able to check it off in my Pantry note, so it doesn’t appear on my Shopping List and is already checked off on the ingredient list for the Cake recipe (and any other recipes in which “flour” might appear).
Things I have tried
I have tried to read through this topic Help: #howto Build Recipe "database" in Obsidian (complex) but I feel it is too complex for my needs. I also think I might be approaching this from the wrong angle and there is probably a very simple solution that I am missing!
