Abstract
Aspects include learning object/action pairs for recipe ingredients. A method includes extracting an ingredient list that includes a plurality of entries from a recipe stored in an electronic format. Each of the plurality of entries includes one or more words. For each multi-word entry in the ingredient list, an ingredient associated with the entry is identified by comparing words contained in the entry to terms in a lexicon of cooking domain terms. It is determined whether an action corresponds to the identified ingredient. The determining includes parsing the entry to locate a verb that is associated with the identified ingredient. Based on determining that an action corresponds to the identified ingredient, a food item action pair that includes the identified ingredient and the located verb is output.
