Kitchen Diary guides
Build a step-by-step recipe you can cook again
Organize a recipe into preparation, cooking and finishing steps with ingredients, tools, actions and timing in Kitchen Diary.
Give each step a clear job
A useful cooking note records what happened, not just the finished dish. Start with preparation: select ingredients, pick a suitable tool and add an action. Then move through cooking and finishing. Kitchen Diary filters compatible tools and actions as you build your sequence.
Record the details you would otherwise forget
Use the available settings for timing, heat, liquids, cut shapes and finishing details. Keep the order practical: prepare ingredients before the step that needs them, and record a change when you adapt a familiar recipe. These details make your own version easier to revisit.
Start from a pantry match
You can begin with a dish from Your pantry instead of an empty recipe. Opening a matched dish in the builder brings its ingredients, tools and steps with it. Review the sequence and tailor it to the way you want to cook.
Preview and keep your ideas
The builder includes cooking artwork and motion previews for supported steps. Use the preview to review the sequence, then keep your recipes in your cookbook. For inspiration beyond your own collection, browse the community recipe feed and search for a dish to explore.
