Have you ever had a recipe that required a certain ingredient but that particular ingredient is not readily available where you live OR if it is available, it's really expensive. This website called Gourmet Sleuth will share ingredients that you can substitute. For example:
- If you don't have radicchio, use endive or arugula.
- If you don't have jack fruit, use plantains, summer squash or papaya.
If the recipe calls for something exotic like Bhutanese Red Rice, you can substitute Black rice or brown rice.
"Bhutanese Red Rice is a partially-milled short grain rice grown in the Himalayan mountains."
You can easily look up what you need as the ingredients are arranged in alphabetical order.
The site also has a blog and shares recipes, conversions, and articles. Because I am interested in world cuisine, I really like the article section titled "Ethnic, Unique Foods, Ingredients".
