## What is DishDrift?

DishDrift is a home cooking community for people living far from home.

Moved abroad and miss the food you grew up with? Someone who shares your roots has already figured out how to cook it where you live now. DishDrift helps you find them.

A FEED THAT KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE FROM
Set your home country and where you live now. Your feed highlights recipes from people with the same background, cooking in the same country you do. Their solutions are your solutions.

LOCAL SWAPS
The hardest part of cooking abroad is the ingredient you cannot buy. Recipes on DishDrift carry Local Swaps: substitutions that real cooks in your area have actually used, like which local supermarket item comes closest to the one from back home.

COOK, DO NOT SCROLL
Cooking mode walks you through one step at a time, with ingredient amounts that rescale to your serving size. Grouped ingredients and per-ingredient tips keep the recipe readable when your hands are busy.

A COMMUNITY THAT ANSWERS
Cannot find an ingredient anywhere? Ask the Swap Board. People living in your country answer with what worked for them. Post photos when you cook someone's recipe, leave comments, and save the dishes you want to try.

FREE TO USE
Posting and reading recipes is free, forever.
