Have to say I'm a bit surprised by all the replies that are completely fine with all the results being SEO ridden blogs instead of something useful, for example have you tried searching for a recipe in the last year, 1000 word blog and then the recipe as an extra.
The top two results you've posted here aren't even SEO blogs, they're official sources. Recipe sites have been bullshit since long, long, long before the past year and the current trend of SEO enshittification. This argument doesn't hold water.
I think most people are just used to Google, I used to be several years ago before moving to DDG.
Now I find Google is way too... "tutorially" and "bloggy" with results, and actually slows down my workflow a lot when I'm looking for a specific thing immediately - usually a bit of scrolling to get what I'm looking for.
DDG (for my use case as a casual search engine, and something to search docs for work) gets you to whatever you want with a much, much shorter and concise query, and pretty much always gets it right each time as the first result
