Whenever you feel an impulse to try out new receipts, you head over to the cookbook to read the detailed set of instructions in text format before trying things out.
But what if there was a better way to get things done? Perhaps something to guide you visually of the ingredients used inside recipes?
That is where the concept of Youmiam , an iPhone app, comes from. This app features several hundred recipes you can browse but what sets this app apart from others is how the cooking instructions are presented.
And apart from the easy to follow instructions, the app lets you look at recipes and make a shopping list of the items required to prepare a dish.
How to use Youmiam for iOS
After installing this app on your device, you will need to sign up for a new account with your email or Facebook ID. Swiping right on the screen will open up your profile and let you access tabs such as the shopping list. Swiping left will let you access search and look at recommended recipes.
Tap on any of the recipes you would like to make from those searched for or recommended. When the recipe launches, scrolling down will let you see what type of dish it is, how many people can eat it, and how long it takes the maker to prepare it. Swiping right on these details will let you see the ingredients required to make a dish. To see all ingredients of a recipe and add them to your shopping list, tap the shopping card icon below the image of the dish. You can also add it to favorites.
Once all the ingredients are available, you can start cooking. Open the recipe and tap the photo; now you’re going to see a play button (this is where the app creates magic). All the ingredients required in the first step of the recipe are shown at the top of the instructions.
You can swipe to the other step where the required ingredients will be beautifully displayed and the instructions will be written in big lettering. This is better than the monotonous instructions list you follow every day; on most instances you are losing your place and trying to remember which step to follow next, particularly if you have a week eyesight. This app makes it easy.
Final thoughts
Youmiam is a great application that works seamlessly and lets you enjoy a new cooking experience. You can also share recipes at any time. The app works on iOS 7 and above and is free to download. Do leave your thoughts if you give it a try.
