Hi,
Why the command \placerecipe{}{} does not with an environment
\starttikzpicture
\stoptikzpicture ?
In my opinion this is a "bug" in TikZ that has been pointed out a
while ago already. The picture creates a "wrong type of the box". If I
remember correctly the behaviour is different in LaTeX.
An easy workaround (that I always use) is to enclose the graphic into
an \hbox{}, like this:
\hbox{\starttikzpicture
...
% content
...
\stoptikzpicture}
(With \placefigure or \placerecipe or whatever used as usual before
the \hbox{}.)
We might want to coordinate a patch with the TikZ team.
Yes, it is a two line change in t-tikz that would not affect the latex or plain tex behavior.
it all depends how sensitive the environment is with respect to spaces 
as unwanted one can creep in when in horizontal mode
