How to use it
- Name the dish and the person or source you learned it from. Ask before sharing a recipe someone considers private.
- Copy ingredients and quantities as given; include units. Note an unclear quantity instead of guessing or silently converting it.
- Write the method in order and ask about the details that the cook does by memory. This tool does not check cooking instructions or calculate portions.
- Add a short story, then save an editable copy or print the card. Make a trial version and record any agreed corrections separately from the original.
Keep the connection going
A recipe can start a family conversation. After trying it together, share an agreed photo and note in Kinello's Story. You can also add the recipe in the app's Recipes tool. The web template does not upload, import or sync your entries.
