Two dishes, one finish time. Choose two recipes, review each task's time and equipment, and CookTable builds a cooking plan with a start time and an estimated finish. Spend less time rereading recipes and more time cooking. CookTable connects ingredients and instructions in a visual table, so you can see what each step needs. Keep ingredients in view as you move through the recipeโ€”or switch to a focused, step-by-step cooking view. SEE WHAT GOES WHERE Ingredients run down the side, steps run across. Scroll through longer recipes without losing sight of your ingredients, and mark steps complete as you cook. FOCUS ON THE NEXT STEP Follow one instruction at a time, track your progress, and use cooking timers to keep track of the wait. BRING YOUR FAVORITES Import from supported recipe websites or paste recipe text. Review the result before saving. When a recipe cannot reliably become a table, follow its instructions in step format instead. PLAN DINNER, THEN SHOP Add recipes to your weekly meal plan and build a shopping list from your selections. Add extra items and check things off as you shop. COORDINATE TWO RECIPES Choose two dishes and review their timing to plan how to cook them together. YOUR COLLECTION, ON YOUR DEVICE No account required. Your recipes stay on your device. CookTable uses anonymous usage analytics, described in our privacy policy. FREE TO START New users receive five welcome imports, with two additional imports available each calendar month starting the following month. Try one coordinated meal. CookTable Pro unlocks unlimited imports and additional coordinated cooking. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
