No. Recipes are not copyrightable because they're largely functional things for instructing a process to create a food, which simply is not in the purview of copyright. Specific recipes could very well be patented, depending on the specifics. There are no "explicit exclusions" here.
I did some research, and you're right. I guess I was mislead years ago when I "learned" this.
And still the list of ingredients and food preparation process will not be copyrighted, just the way the specific recipe is written. Anyone could write a simple rephrased version of that recipe which creates the same dish and sell it. Or sell the dish in their restaurant.
