The Mac has only a few recipe management applications and YummySoup! is one of the best. Why? Four words: Organizing, sharing, cooking, and shopping. Oh, and there’s a handy Wine & Spirits manager, full screen view for cooking, and user recipes available in an online library. What’s so yummy? </p> <h3>Fun Cooking</h3><p> It may be hard to imagine for some chefs that you can involve your computer in the cooking process, but that’s what <a href="http://hungryseacow.com/" title="YummySoup">YummySoup</a>! does best. After all, your Mac is fun. So is cooking with YummySoup!</p> <blockquote><p>Browse your recipes with the adjustable full screen view, that gently fades into view. Use your Apple remote to flip through your recipes, or have your directions read to you! Cook with ease, assured that you won’t have to touch your keyboard or mouse since sleep timers are deactivated when using this view.</p></blockquote> <p>This isn’t just a recipe collector or organizer. YummySoup is a great Mac application which lets you enjoy the whole cooking process from planning to shopping to dining to sharing.</p> <h3>Organizing</h3><p> YummySoup! is about as intuitive and basic as you can get. The layout is familiar with your library in the left column, library details in the upper right column, recipes details below that (<em>click any image for a pop up, close up view</em>).</p> <p><a href="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_04.png" onclick="window.open('http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_04.png','popup','width=992,height=619,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false" title="The YummySoup User Interface"><img src="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_04_thumb.png" style="border: 0;" class="image_center" alt="Yummy" title="YummySoup User Interface" width="350" height="216" /></a></p> <p>Looks inviting, no? It comes with plenty of recipes to get started and using YummySoup to cook is also a fun experience. Fun?</p> <blockquote><p>Browse your recipes with the adjustable full screen view, that gently fades into view. Use your Apple remote to flip through your recipes, or have your directions read to you! Cook with ease, assured that you won’t have to touch your keyboard or mouse since sleep timers are deactivated when using this view.</p></blockquote> <p>Notice how the recipes also show Cooking Time, User Rating, and Degree of Difficulty, in addition to the Cooking Time.</p> <h3>Sharing</h3><p> YummySoup takes recipe sharing to multiple levels. Share complete recipes, including photos, detailed ingredients, and step-by-step directions—via email or online or print out.</p> <blockquote><p>Send rich formatted emails with pictures. These emails look exactly like prints. If your recipient also has a copy of YummySoup!, then they can add your creation to their library with the included export file, sent with every email.</p></blockquote> <h3>Shopping</h3><p> No recipe management system is worth anything unless you can create shopping lists on the fly. YummySoup! delivers. Click the Shopping Cart icon.</p> <p><a href="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_06.png" onclick="window.open('http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_06.png','popup','width=674,height=323,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false" title="The YummySoup Shopping List"><img src="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_06_thumb.png" style="border: 0;" class="image_center" alt="YummySoup" title="YummySoup Shopping List" width="350" height="163" /></a></p> <p>The Shopping List can be consolidated into one list, emailed or printed.</p> <h3>Cooking</h3><p> Now the fun begins. YummySoup! makes it easy to use a Mac in the kitchen, or nearby. Full screen mode saves the day.</p> <p>Even edit recipes on the fly using the built-in editor, then share your creations with others.</p> <p><a href="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_05.png" onclick="window.open('http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_05.png','popup','width=992,height=701,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false" title="The YummySoup Recipe Editor"><img src="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_05_thumb.png" style="border: 0;" class="image_center" alt="YummSoup" title="YummySoup Recipe Editor" width="350" height="245" /></a></p> <blockquote><p>The navigational structure of YummySoup! is fantastic. Groups of recipes can have subgroups which makes finding the right meal easy. Browsing any one group, will show you not only the recipes belonging to that group, but all the recipes belonging to all subgroups.</p></blockquote> <h3>Preferences</h3><p> YummySoup is flexible. Rely totally on the recipes from the Online Library, or modify the details to fit your cooking style.</p> <p><a href="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_03.png" onclick="window.open('http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_03.png','popup','width=563,height=468,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false" title="The YummySoup Preferences"><img src="http://pixobebo.com/images/uploads/20080506_Yummy_03_thumb.png" style="border: 0;" class="image_center" alt="YummySoup" title="YummySoup Preferences" width="350" height="289" /></a></p> <p>AutoFill is built in, but so are details in Preferences. Add Measurements, Ingredients and Methods to the Ingredients AutoFill. Add Origins, Times, Ethnicities in the Recipe Info AutoFill.</p> <p>I’ve been using <a href="http://hungryseacow.com/" title="YummySoup">YummySoup</a>! for awhile and I admit to enjoying the <em>process</em> of cooking as much as the <em>event</em> of eating what I cook. Not bad for $20, but only $15 in celebration of Mother’s Day.</p> <h3>Eating</h3><p> What else is there to say? Bon appetit! </p> </div>  <a name="read"></a> <div class="wrapper_comments"> <h3>Reader Comments (2)</h3> <div class="frame_comments_one"> <p><strong>Kitchen sinks</strong> said:</p> <p>The recipes also show Cooking Time, User Rating, and Degree of Difficulty, in addition to the Cooking Time. </p> <div class="posted">#1 | Monday, October 12, 2009</div> </div> <div class="frame_comments_two"> <p><strong>Candace Yamaguchi</strong> said:</p> <p>I’ve used MacGourmet for a couple of years. It seems very similar to YummySoup. It takes a little discipline to use your Mac for recipes and shopping lists, but once you make the switch from cookbooks and index cards, there’s no going back. My Mac just holds too much valuable information, plus I can grab recipes from the web so I don’t spend as much on cook books these days. </p> <div class="posted">#2 | Tuesday, May 6, 2008</div> </div>
