Using Recipes in family life
It is easy to lose your place while cooking. When fewer people are eating, the ingredient amounts need adjusting too.
Open a recipe, expand Preparation and tap Start Cooking. Set the servings and tick off prepared ingredients under Ingredients. Switch to Steps and use Next to work through the recipe. A step with a saved duration offers Start Timer.

How the steps fit together
- 1
Open cooking mode
Open the recipe, expand Preparation and tap Start Cooking. Cooking Mode begins on the Ingredients tab.
- 2
Set servings and prepare ingredients
Use minus and plus to change the servings. In the example, reducing four servings to two changes 400 g of penne to 200 g. Tap ingredients as you get them ready.

Follow the steps and use a timer
Switch to Steps, read the current instruction and use Next to move on. If the step has a saved duration, tap Start Timer. Tap the countdown to stop it. Only change steps once you no longer need that timer.

Finish cooking
The final step offers Finish. Confirm to return to the recipe. To save a Note for next time, use the field on the Ingredients tab first; this note belongs to the shared recipe.
