iPhone App $4.99 Our Review By Chantelle Joy Duxbury on March 21st, 2011 Rating: :: KITCHEN GURU An encyclopedia of kitchen and cooking knowledge at your fingertips, though a bit of a chore to wade through.

I LOVE This app!!!

KL in FL

Version: 1.2.1

I was reading some of the reviewers who only downloaded the free app with a few teaser recipes. I paid for the full version of the app and LOVE it!!! I am a mother of 4 teenagers and try to cook a real meal at least 4-5 times a week and the feature that lets me add a recipe to my calendar is awesome! I also love the shopping list!! Even if I'm not making something from this cookbook the app let's me add my own items to the list. No more carrying a pen & paper list around. Just grab my iTouch and I'm ready. Definitely worth the small price for this app!

Excellent app-recipes but so much more

Version: 1.2.1

This is my first app review. Most of the ones you get free are ok, and I've found that the free ones are typically better than the pay ones because your expectations are higher... But this app is worth every penny. The search function is great - ingredient, flavor, fast, etc - and the integrated timers are very useful and ingenious. The recipes are straightforward and crystal clear - very important to the novice chef - and the illustrations are helpful. I use this all the time and give it a great rating. Possible improvements: more search options (search by season, cookware, dinner/lunch/dessert) and let people comment on their hacks and changes to recipes.... Thanks!!

Good, but not customizable

Version: 1.2.1

First of all, this app is very well written. It's polished, and very usable. The only problem is that it's not an all in one food organization app as it seems to be. Unless you want to stop making your usual food and only make recipes from this app you have a problem. You cannot import your own recipes into the app. This is the most important thing I would hope to see added. Also, when adding the ingredients from a recipe to the grocery list, there should be an option to pick which items go on the list. It's great to be able to quickly add things to the list, but the efficiency is lost when you have to go and delete flour off the list every time. Like I said, other than the customization part, this is a great app. Adding these two features would make it a five star app, and worth the $5 for the full version.
