This incredible app helps you ‘steal’ recipes from almost any website

Finally get all of your online recipes organized with this easy app

By Lindsay Parrill Published February 15, 2023

Once upon a time, there were no computers or phones, tablets, or Apple watches. No Food Network websites, annoyingly frequent subscription emails, superfluous apps, or online grocery store newsletters. Recipes were discovered and passed on through printed note cards, lovingly handwritten by friends and neighbors, or simply snipped from an actual newspaper or magazine. If you saw or tasted something you wanted to make yourself, you asked the cook for the recipe and tucked it into a charming countertop recipe box.

These days, it’s not quite that simple. Between the thousands of food blogger sites, online cookbooks, and YouTube tutorials, it’s very easy for the recipes that piqued our interest to fall through the cracks. With the best of intentions, we pin, we screenshot, we save, we copy and paste, only to end up with so many random links and photos that we end up overwhelmed, frustratingly deleting them and ordering DoorDash. If this chaos sounds as familiar to you as it did us, rest assured that there’s an answer to this problem of online recipe organization.

How to brine a turkey: Step-by-step tips from the pros

Looking to avoid a dry turkey? Brine the bird for a moist, delicious meal

Thanksgiving table

If we’re all being honest here, the “turkey” part of Thanksgiving dinner tends to be the least impressive part of the yearly feast. That’s generally because turkey dries out easily and lacks the natural flavor of heartier meats like lamb, pork, and prime rib. So, on a typical Thanksgiving table, the turkey plays second fiddle to more interesting side dishes like mashed potatoes, yams, stuffing, and Brussels sprouts. Are you looking to take your side dishes to the next level? Try these smoked Thanksgiving sides.

However, enterprising cooks are always seeking ways to elevate the Thanksgiving turkey and turn it into a dish worth craving. For pro chefs, a tried-and-true solution to the flavorless turkey problem is “brining,” a pre-roasting process designed to seal in moisture and add touches of spices, herbs, and other seasonings.
