A lot of people stop taking notes because they feel like everything has to be neat and organized all the time.
But the best notes are usually the quick, messy ones you write before the idea disappears.
You can clean things up later.
Joplin makes it easy to capture thoughts fast, find them later, and actually stick to the habit.

But recipes weren't always this efficient. Medieval recipes were as vague as "Boil until it be enough."
