Sometimes when you want to learn how to cook something, cooking apps can actually end up confusing you even more. Bad directions or confusing recipes can wear you down and make you give up. Cookentials is an app that gives you simple step-by-step recipes to help you clearly understand the whole process at a glance.
Meat, fish, salads, or desserts – Cookentials can help you prepare all types of foods in a really easy way. Each recipe has a picture of all the ingredients on a table. Each ingredient has a note of the amount used and small arrows showing you if it goes into the oven or the pan. These minimalist schematics are much better than long explanations from books.
If you're not familiar with one of the ingredients, the tool also has a complete list of the ingredients you'll need. You can also share the recipe you're using on any social network or via email, so your friends and family can try it, too. There's also a calendar where you can mark special dates when you plan to cook.
With fun animations, Cookentials makes sure you understand each step perfectly, even if you need to prepare some ingredients beforehand. In these cases, for example, you'll see scissors indicating where to cut certain veggies, or which kitchen tools to use, which is hardly ever included in your typical cookbook.
