We've been cooking by looking at recipes for a while now, haven't we?
My grandmother wrote several recipe books when she was young, and we still use them to make meals that we don't know step by step.
I love my grandmother's notebooks; they tell a story, handwriting written in pen ink, paper yellowed with age, lots of sweet and savory recipes, and what I like most is that there are recipes I wrote when I was little, my mother, and even my uncle. And today we read them and see how our handwriting has changed and become memories.
My grandmother always says that food is much more than just eating, it is a form of love for the person who makes it and for the person who eats it, it is a moment to keep in the memory of being loved.
Recipe books are a thing of the past; technology has made it much easier to search for recipes online, even using ingredients you already have at home. I remember having to search through my grandmother's recipe book page by page to find the recipe I wanted.
I found some applications here to make your life easier when cooking, preparing that meal to surprise your family and friends.
1- TudoGostoso Recipes
Free app that you download from the store applications from your cell phone.
With it, you can search for various recipes. They clearly list the ingredients and step-by-step instructions, and also indicate how many people the recipes can serve.
I use it a lot.
In addition to having several options of the same recipe, people can rate the recipes and you choose the one that best suits you.
For example, a condensed milk pudding. Some people suggest straining the egg to avoid the egg smell, while others recommend using the whole egg. It all depends on your preference.
2- Easy Recipes
Free app for Android.
Very easy to use, it has a very easy to navigate menu, it separates the food into categories: Drinks, cakes, meats, pasta...
To download it just click here
In addition to providing step-by-step instructions, it also includes a list of ingredients and preparation methods.
And the coolest thing is that you can add the recipes you like most as favorites.
3- Tasty Recipes
It's a very popular app on social media, and besides posting quick videos, it also offers several very different and unusual recipes.
I love watching videos on them, I get stuck for hours watching, each thing is beautiful and delicious.

I love this app because I find several recipes that are common outside of Brazil but that we don't know about.
I hope you enjoyed today's posts, and may they make your life much easier. Do you or your family keep a recipe book?
I still use it when I want a touch of my grandmother in my recipes, but I also don't give up on apps to make my life easier.
Having these apps makes it easier and more practical to prepare meals, as you already know the quantity of ingredients you need, the time required, and the entire step-by-step process.
