Paprika Recipe Manager 3

[Rob Johnston]

I am going to have to check this out. Thanks everybody!

[Attjack]

Let's see if uploading a recipe with the "Upload Pix" button works.

[hoovarmin]

Attjack what file format did you use to do this? I tried and failed.

[Attjack]

hoovarmin

[hoovarmin]

Hmmm. When I use the Upload Pix button the file uploads, but their is no "Insert" link. Only "Remove."

efincoop That sherry cream sauce looks really good. Gonna have to try it. Thanks for sharing it. Went right into Paprika, along with several others shared here.

[JCBBQ]

Ok ok! I’m gonna have to get this.

[hoovarmin]

Bro, you will be so glad you did.

[Attjack]

@hoovarmin I just selected the file and posted it. No insertion step is necessary.

[hoovarmin]

Got it! Thanks

[hoovarmin]

Test

[Attjack]

It worked!

[hoovarmin]

Damn good recipe, by the way

[Donw]

Thank you. The import worked flawlessly.

[WayneT]

I just pulled the trigger on this app too. I’m still trying to calculate how old I’ll be when I get all my recipes uploaded to it. 🤯

[hoovarmin]

WayneT the ones you got from the internet you can simply download using the built in browser

[WayneT]

OK, that means I won’t hit the century mark. 👍

[SheilaAnn]

Ok, mind blown (pun not intended when you click the file). Paprika does procedure only entries.

[WI Bubba]

Making jello in your pot of dirty oil is a good thing? Yep. Mind blown.

[SheilaAnn]

I mean blown away that paprika took this procedural piece as opposed to formal recipe and filed it.

[WayneT]

SheilaAnn Yep, mind blown how it effortlessly downloaded that procedure (only!) using the Paprika browser. Based on your post, that was my first use of Paprika. I’m gonna like it!

[HotSun]

SheilaAnn, I thought this was a recipe manager for all my recipes that use paprika. Which is a lot.

I've been looking for a replacement for Living Cookbook, which left me stranded and without my recipes for a while (I was able to rescue them, thankfully). I think this is perfect, since I am the primary cook in the house and have to plan our meals.

Thanks for sharing!

Yet another "winning" moment with this app….. I can add a photo! It really helps when I go to the Asian markets and nothing is in English.

[MBMorgan]

Another useful trick: Create a "_REFERENCE" category for useful reference docs like King Arthur's guide to baking at high altitude:



... or useful conversions, Paprika syntax, etc.:



... or even things like A Mind-Blowing Technique for Cleaning Deep-Fry Oil ...

[hoovarmin]

Great idea

Maybe off-topic slightly, but try using Google Translate while shopping. There is a mode where you can use your camera and it will translate onscreen for you. Used that a lot in our travels. Probably helps here at our Asian and international markets, too, now that I think of it.

[SheilaAnn]

🤯 what? That’s a thing?

[HotSun]

SheilaAnn, yeah. It is part of the Google Lens technology, but if you have the Translate app, you can press the camera button in the app to use it. It works well for the Romance languages. I just tried this on a few bottles with mixed results. It did pretty well on the Sriracha bottle with some humorous results: 'refined with chilli and pesto, with to reconcile various fish noodle dumplings'. Multilanguage labels, like my fish sauce, mixed results. It's worth a try I think.

[WillTravelForFood]

Yup, have used it often in the non-English food aisles. Always a good reminder.

Although we do like SheilaAnn idea of saving photos of packages, as it can help in other ways when browsing
