I mean I have a dedicated iPad Mini 2 in my kitchen that I use Paprika [0] on, that feels pretty much in line with what was predicted (I don't do my calendaring or taxes on it but still). I know I'm far from alone in having this setup, multiple friends and family members use the same thing. Even growing up we had an older laptop in the kitchen for looking up recipes and the like (though that was very much so an outlier among my friends and their parents at that time).

Fantastic app suggestion! I've been manually copying and pasting recipes I liked into Notion so they are all largely formatted the same—the download recipe functionality in Paprika is magic.

I'm a huge fan of Paprika, their app is slick, they have apps on iOS/Android/Mac/Windows, and it all syncs. They have a ton of features under the hood that I don't even use (like meal planning, pantry management, etc) but I do love their shopping list feature. Just click the shopping cart icon on a recipe and it will let you add all the ingredients to one of your lists. You can easily uncheck all the things you already have and it respects recipe scaling and it will combine ingredients (so if one recipe has 2 tomatoes and you scale it 2x and then another recipe has 3 tomatoes and you leave it at 1x you will end up with 7 tomatoes on your list). Sometimes you need to clean up a recipe a little bit (brand name in the ingredient list or odd naming) but the nice part is you do that once then reap the benefits for forever.

Also, if you are feeling froggy, their cloud sync API is pretty easy to reverse engineer (it's a super basic REST service) so you can build on top of it or write little utilities if needed.

Having all my recipes in the same format is so nice and I can edit a recipe if I want to tweak it or if I find out that what a recipe called for wasn't quite right. Like the icing I make for my red velvet cupcakes called for an insane amount of powered sugar (aka confectioners sugar) and so I edited the recipe so next time I wouldn't over-buy the sugar. Same with tweaking the flavor profile, cook times, etc. And I can add things I always have to look up like sous vide temp/time, I just have a "Sous Vide Steak" "recipe" that has the times in the body of the instructions.
