Love this!

It really is like Duolingo for cooking. It teaches you theory in addition to recipes, which makes me feel so much better when I’m reading through recipes and ingredient lists. And it’s fun!

Super fun and informative

Each lesson is a series of quizzes with multiple choice questions. I started as someone who never cooks so it started me off with all of the basics; such as how to pick different produce and meats, how to safely prepare and cook chicken, how to store various herbs and produce and meats, and kept building on those skills. As you answer more questions you are building your way up to unlock a recipe, which is related to the questions that you answer. It’s super user friendly and informative.

Fun and educational

I wasn’t expecting much from this app initially but it is pretty fun. It has helped improve my cooking and the recipes are good. Definitely recommend it.

Amazing!

I love cooking but sometimes I never know what to make. While there are thousands of recipes out there, if not more, it’s kind of like Netflix. You sit around figuring out which one you want to make. This takes the guess work out of dinners by making me work for the recipe and educating me along the way. Amazing work on this! Keep it up!

Great in depth tutorials!

Appreciate the mini quizzes on everything from shopping to finishing the dishes

Entertaining

I thought I’d pass every test with flying colors but I’ve learned a lot that I didn’t know.

Fun and Helpful

I can’t wait for new recipes to be released!

Fun, friendly, cute, and EFFECTIVELY EDUCATIONAL

Wow, so many good things to say about this app. It is so good at achieving its main goal, which is to teach people how to cook. But it goes so much deeper than that. It will tell you how to look for the right produce, special kitchen techniques, etc, and it achieves all of this while still being approachable to novices. It’s encouraging and sweet and I have thoroughly enjoyed using this app. It’s definitely worth a try.

Stop asking me to allow notifications

I like the learning content. But the app keeps prompting me with an “oops” message prompting me to allow notifications. I don’t want notifications stop asking.

Great app!

What a fun way to learn to cook and learn new recipes. Gamification via short quizzes that also explain the “why” to a lot of cooking techniques. Plus the recipes themself are tasty. Every single one has been a huge hit with my family, and the kids come running in with requests any time they hear me in the kitchen starting to cook.
