The top bar only searches within recipe titles. So if a recipe title has those keywords, it will show up in the results. The best way to search for ingredients would be in the sidebar.

In this particular example, the issue is that the source dataset [1] has "lime leaves" in plural, so if you click on "show more" in the sidebar after searching for "lime", you should see it in the list. I'm going to work on normalizing singular / plural ingredients as much as I can as part of this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25368628
