Paprika App is currently having their annual Black Friday sale - their apps are 40-50% off. I can't recommend this app enough, I use it for all of my recipe organization, meal planning, and grocery shopping, it's phenomenal! It has built-in syncing so I can keep it up-to-date on all my devices, and even while shopping. If you cook/grocery shop a lot this really is a must-have.

@nsfmc Ahh interesting - I haven't tried that yet, will check it out!

@jeresig I love Paprika — it has so many features, yet is so easy to use.

@jeresig the web recipe scrape feature is, on brand, a chef’s kiss 👨‍🍳 such a good app!
Show threadRoss WardrupNov 21, 2022
@carter @jeresig yes! I haven’t found a webpage yet that it can’t scrape and parse perfectly. I don’t know how they did it, but it’s great.

@jeresig I’ll second a recommendation for this app. It’s fantastic! Easily let’s you clip recipes off websites, scale them up or down, change the measurements between metric and “standard US”. I think I’ve got over 3500 recipes in mine…. #recipes #cooking

@jeresig Do you prefer it over Mela? And why?
Show threadJohn ResigNov 21, 2022
@lewin I'd never heard of Mela - but this works really well for me! One difference I see is that the grocery feature of Paprika is much more powerful, lots of organization features, attaching ingredients to specific recipes, etc.

@jeresig same, it is great! Shameless plug of a lame script I wrote to convert the exported recipes from Paprika to ePub, so you can hold them on Kindle, can be, sometimes, convenient while cooking: https://github.com/rberenguel/paprika-epub

@jeresig that app is so good. I bought it for multiple platforms!

@jeresig Paprika is an amazing app! Makes cooking, shopping and storing recipes so much easier and more enjoyable. I haven't really used the pantry feature yet and usually manually put my shopping list together, so I should spend more time exploring it!
Show threadJohn ResigNov 24, 2022
@crisnics Yeah, I guess I'm similar - don't really use the pantry and put together the shopping list manually. But one thing I did was re-work all the categories to match the aisles in my grocery store, makes shopping much more efficient!

@jeresig In addition to scraping recipes - am I correct to assume I can manually enter recipes directly?
Show threadJohn ResigNov 24, 2022
@jkramersmyth Yep, totally! I've manually entered a bunch of recipes (ones I've made, or ones passed down from family).

@jeresig Best recipe app I have ever used. Love the way it syncs with all my devices and my wife’s as well.
