Cannot teach family recipes

I play on PC, use no mods or cc, and the option to “teach a family recipe” no longer works. When I click on it, the menu with the recipes and aims to teach to just doesn’t show up. The first issue I noticed was all family recipes disappeared. Six generations of recipes, all gone. So I recreated as many as I could then tried to teach them to my sim’s young adult child, but the menu just never pops up. I have restarted my game multiple names, no luck. :(
