Read full descriptionHide full description
Scale kitchen recipes easily! Add the recipe you need with the original numbers, and then change the amount of any of the components - the application will automatically show the required amount of all other components. There is a field with a description of the recipe - describe the steps and nuances there. For each component, write down its name and quantity in a free format - that is, a number with a unit of measure. The quantity can be written as an integer, as well as a fractional number with a dot, comma, or even as a fraction! For example: 1 ml, 1.5g, 1/2 cup, 3 1/5 pinches, or even "to taste". Recipes are automatically synced across all your devices in this app. For example, you can type in a recipe on your iPhone or Mac, and then cook while looking on your iPad! You can also export all your recipes to a file and import them into FlexRecipes on any supported platform.
