Dumpling is a recipe lab notebook for home cooks who keep improving what they make. Instead of overwriting a recipe after every test cook, save a new version. Compare what changed, restore an older version as a draft, and keep cooking notes so the next batch starts from what you learned. Build your cooking loop: Save ingredients, steps, photos, links, tags, categories, servings, prep time, and cook time. Track every version with change notes and compare it with the latest recipe. Cook step by step with built-in timers. Save satisfaction and a cooking memo after you finish. Add recipe ingredients to a shopping list. Track stored ingredients, quantities, units, locations, and expiration dates. Use quick kitchen timers and review timer history. Store recipe files locally or in iCloud Drive. Dumpling is made for people who learn by trying: adjust the sauce, change the timing, swap an ingredient, and keep the version worth making again. Start free with 5 recipes and 20 stored ingredients. A one-time purchase unlocks unlimited personal recipes and stored ingredients. Your recipe files remain yours. --- Privacy Policy: https://www.appgarage.app/apps/dumpling/privacy/ Terms of Service: https://www.appgarage.app/apps/dumpling/terms/
