  summary: Public cross-content search over recipes, products, pages and posts.
  description: Public, unauthenticated cross-content search over daring.com via the WordPress core search controller. A single query returns lightweight {id, title, url, type, subtype} records spanning every searchable post type on the site - `recipes`, `products`, `foodservice-products`, `page` and `post` - with `subtype` carrying which collection each hit came from, so a result can be resolved back to its full record through the matching collection endpoint. This is the cheapest single call for an agent that wants to find Daring content by keyword without walking 208 recipes page by page.

    note: Routes enumerated from the live WordPress route index at https://daring.com/wp-json/ (222 routes across 10 namespaces) on 2026-08-04, then probed anonymously one at a time; only routes verified to return HTTP 200 without credentials are documented here. Schemas reflect fields observed in the live responses. Write methods exist on the same routes but require WordPress authentication (cookie + X-WP-Nonce, or Application Passwords) and return HTTP 401 anonymously, so they are not documented. No fabricated operations, parameters or fields.
