Cooking History

Splendid Array of information on little known origins and methodology of food, recipes and ingredients. A great way to absorb the idiosyncrasies of the culture rich culinary world. A Culinarian’s delight in perfectly cultivated,bite sized, and manageable portions!

Good app

Wish the cost was lower. Wish the daily “article” was longer.

Great for foodways enthusiasts

Really well done and researched with citing to recipe source

Idea

Love the concept of the app works pretty well, I think a social media aspect of this could be great as well where people can add old family recipes or historically relevant recipes from their peoples.

Fun!

This is a great app but it won’t load some times and the widget is not working but when I get it to load I love the recipe and history.

Comepound bread (company)

Lard of the realm

Love it!

I love this app. Very easy to use and always an interesting read.

I would like the option to search through past entries for specific dishes or ingredients. Maybe I’m just missing this feature, but I can’t find it.

Response from developer

Hi thanks for the review and feature suggestion. We are still young and building new features. For sure search should be added.

Informative and easy to navigate

I like the interface and food trivia.

Response from developer

Awesome, thanks!

Membership

I really wish that membership wasn’t so pricey. I love to learn new recipes but I can’t afford the price.

Great potential

Fantastic app but a work in progress!!

Patience

A change of heart on my previous review. Originally I thought the app was broke and wouldn’t load, but I was informed the content is there and can take a while to load. They were right. I love the history and recipes. I’m not just a foodie, but a professional chef. So I’m going from 1 to 5 stars. Thank you!

Thank you for the kind change of heart! We are experiencing some intermittent loading issues we hope to iron out as we try get our little app off the ground. If you have any other trouble or suggestions in future feel free to reach us at: hello@jamapps.io

Really nicely laid out

I have really been enjoying this app - it gives you enough history to satiate you without making you read a whole novel. I do think it would be cool if they added a feature where you could keep track of any recipes you’ve made and add notes/pictures about them!

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind review - and I like the food pun! Yes as we grow we plan to add new features. Shortlist/favoriting is high on our list.

Cool concept but could improve

I absolutely love this app but would love be able to save out the recipes that I am curious to make myself.

Response from developer

Will add to our wishlist of features (recipe exporting so they can be printed).

Nope…spelling counts

I was so excited about this app! I love cooking and food history. I downloaded the free trail and immediately noticed that the writing was juvenile. Then “dessert” was spelled “desert”! Come on. Ridiculous. What a scam. Unsubscribe. Delete.

No content

Screens are blank and I paid for a year for nothing.

Response from developer

Hello, sorry for the negative experience. Unfortunately our servers may have been under load and loading could be slow. I assure you the app does load if you give it time.

Learn something new everyday!!!

This is such an interesting app. I usually don’t like to buy apps, but every day I get a little tidbit of information and I think it’s important to never stop learning. and they bring to me culture and art from all around the world. I highly recommend it.

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind review! We spent a lot of time researching and putting together our articles.

Awesome app

Love the new updated version! Super awesome stuff

Daily art widget

I really like this app! You learn something new about history and the food you eat everyday. And you can even cook it! It’s so interesting reading old recipes and quotes. The widget is like a museum on my phone screen. It makes me feel cultured :)

Response from developer

Awesome, glad you enjoy our app!

AWESOME fun facts!!!

Learned about the everlasting syllab!!

Nice app

A nice app that gives a history of different dishes and also a recipe to make them!
