Recipe Book: Your Own Recipes, Menus and a Cook Mode

👥 Who is this for?

For anyone who cooks the same good dishes again and again, and wants them in one place:

Home cooks tired of hunting through screenshots, notebooks and old messages
Families keeping the recipes that get passed down: Grandma's apple crumble, a parent's Sunday roast
Anyone planning a dinner or a festival meal with several dishes and a serving order
People who get stuck on "what shall we eat?" and want the book to suggest something
Vegetarians and mixed households who filter by diet as a hard rule

Three ideas. A recipe is how you make a dish. A menu puts several recipes together for one occasion. A cook is one time you made it, ticked as you go, then kept as history on the recipe, so the book knows what you have not made in a while.

🍳 How to use it

Write a recipe:
Name, servings, times, and the ingredients as quantity, unit and name, grouped if the dish has a marinade and a sauce. Paste a whole ingredient list at once and it is split into lines for you.
Find tonight's dinner:
The spotlight suggests a dish you have not cooked lately. Filter by time, diet, cuisine or course, or search for what is in the fridge.
Plan a menu:
Put the dishes for an occasion together in the order you serve them.
Cook:
Tick the ingredients as you take them out, then the steps as you go. A step with a time gets a timer. The screen stays on while you cook.
Finish:
Add a one-line note for next time ("needed more salt") and the cook is kept on the recipe.
