Archive.

A list of your recipes, categorized whatever way makes sense to you.

Swipe and search like a maniac. Categories are front and centre to keep up with the most demented of swiping. And once you realize you don't need to stick to traditional categories and can use groups like 'tonight', 'favorites', 'test', you can start to really make sense of the growing list. Make your own features instead of waiting for the app to bring them.

  • High visibility categories.
  • Designed for clear organization of massive lists.
  • Swipe-friendly browsing.
  • Invent features by making a category, like: 'Try this week'.
  • Search bar for when you need to be specific.
  • Side index bar for even faster zooming to a certain letter.
  • Keeps recipes in a single, safe location.

Write & Tweak.

Write naturally. Like you would on a scrap of paper or notes. We'll figure out units and quantities.

Write a recipe just like you would scribble it on a page or in notes. No tiny forms for each line, no formatting to point out ingredients. If you write 100g or 100 grams the app will know what that is. Or let's say you paste in a recipe written as 200 grams but you want to use ounces? The unit conversion already picked this up.

  • Write naturally, like you would in notes.
  • No need to format anything, SFF understands where the quantities and units are.
  • Automatic highlighting of quantities, units, temperatures and times.
  • Tweak and change recipes without leaving the page.
  • Dedicated notes section.
  • Add optional comments to ingredients when they need a bit of elaboration (like a substitute or an alternative name) without cluttering the list.
  • Easily split big recipes into sections.

Cook.

Hands full? A hundred things about to burn at the same time? Some Fine Food is made with that in mind.

Having 5 seconds to find where you were in a recipe is a luxury in some kitchens. Some Fine Food is designed to realistically work in the chaos. Your current step is pinned and highlighted. Ingredients are crossed out and fade into the background. Meaning it takes you all of half a second to find where you are and continue. Less stress, more help.

  • Pin one or multiple steps.
  • Cross-off ingredients as you find them or use them.
  • You never need two hands.
  • Every duration written in the recipe becomes a timer you control.
  • Use anything as an alarm that cuts through the noise: the phone, a smart kitchen light, etc.
  • Cook from 2 recipes simultaneously on an iPad.

Import.

Recipes scattered everywhere? Import and save from any link or photo to keep your recipes accessible in one place.

Save yourself the trouble of copying and pasting from the link you've opened a thousand times, or writing out a cookbook page. Some Fine Food will import them for you. The experience from cookbooks and family heirlooms is irreplaceable. But if you would like to be able to travel with your favourite pages, or wished you could scale them or convert ingredients - you can have the original and the pocket digial version.

  • Import from links to a recipe.
  • Import using a photo of a recipe.
  • Import using the camera on your phone.
  • Check the results and tweak them before saving imports.
  • Works on laptops and phones, exactly the same.
  • Note the source so there's no confusion of where the recipe is originally found.

Shopping Lists.

Mark each recipe you're cooking. Scale them to the number you're cooking for. Done. You have your grocery list.

Some Fine Food grocery lists don't need further tweaking. They understand the amount needed, they recognize that three descriptions of onions are all the same vegetable but lists them as the original wording so you can be confident you're checking off each recipe's needs. Everything is grouped into aisle sections. I cannot understate how much of a timesaver this is. And you have a checklist that you can start at home and pick up in the store.

  • Create a grocery list from multiple recipes you're planning to cook.
  • Retains the original wording from separate recipes for the same ingredient, while understanding it's the same ingredient. This provides confidence that each recipe is catered for, and avoids questionable merging.
  • Scale recipes before adding to the list, so you're buying the right amount without needing to do any calculations at the store.
  • Clever categorization to group ingredients into aisles. This is my favourite part of the tool as I cannot understate how much time it saves.
  • Start checking off at home, finish checking off in the store. Every device remembers the same list.
  • Dates included for when you added a recipe to a shopping list. Prevents wondering what's relevant on the list if you added something in the past.

Dish Diary.

Ate something unforgetable while out in a restaurant, travelling, or at a friend's place?

Maybe it's something you want to remember in detail, or something you want to recreate at home. Either way, now you have a personal diary of what, where and when.

  • All private.
  • Each dish you keep is sorted by date.
  • Include as much or as little info as you want.
  • Section for your thoughts.
  • Section for the chef's description.
  • Alternative names. Great when travelling and you want to include the real spelling, but it might not be how you know it at home.

  • Share any recipe with any other user of SFF by message, email or anything you share links with.

Overwhelm Friendly.

Designed to reduce task overwhelm that can stop some in their tracks.

Lists of options and tasks can be overwhelming, especially for many with ADHD. Some Fine Food helps you stay on track with focus-friendly features. Hide ingredients you've found, pin steps you're working on, and customize timer alerts to get your attention in ways that work for you.

  • Cross-off or hide ingredients as you find them to maintain focus.
  • Pin and enlarge recipe steps to avoid task overwhelm and know exactly where you are.
  • Everything not relevant fades into the background.
