Welcome to Chef's Journal
Our application is designed to help you share your cooking experience with friends and family. Although there are many recipe finder applications available for your iPhone, few actually allow you to create, edit and illustrate your cooking experience. We want you to engage the tools on your phone in your recipe creation. Take a picture of your signature spaghetti and then add personalized voiceover instructions on the sauce's special ingredient. With Chef's Journal you can rest assured that your entire recipe is being captured, no details spared. There is no limit to the number of steps, pictures or voice recordings that can be added to a particular recipe. When you are done, you can email the media-rich results to your friends and family so they can see and hear what you have done. Or better yet, post it to Facebook.
If you already have favorite recipes you can add to them to the application or forward them as they are. When you are done with your recipes for the week you can even create shopping lists. This application is designed for both the casual cook and the all-consumed gourmet. We know it will meet the whims and needs of both, but please...judge for yourself. Show the world how create food with Chef's Journal.
To get you started, we have included over 20 recipes with the application that we have prepared, tested, photographed and commented on. Use one of our recipes to play around or start a new recipe of yours right away. Take picture to replace existing ones or import them from the web. Add personal comments instead of taking the time to add written text. Have fun, play, create. When you are done, post your creation to Facebook or email your friends.
Some of the features in Chef's Journal include:
- The ability to create your own recipes with your choice of
pictures and voice annotations.
You decide if you'd rather add text or voice annotation. You create the number of steps and include the pictures you want. - Once you have created a recipe, you can email your recipe to friends and
family or post it to Facebook.

We hope this application puts a lot of fun into the time you spend cooking. You can share your completed masterpieces or send out a visual SOS when you get stuck. The recipes can change and improve as you perfect the ingredients and techniques over time or with help from friends and family. All this can be done using whichever combination of tools work best for you – voice recordings, pictures and text. It's your show. Share often, and share with everyone you enjoy eating and cooking with.
It is our hope that our application will preserve the memories of your culinary experiences and expand the sharing of good food and drinks between friends and family. Enjoy!
