Plaited

The cookbook you never had time to write.

Sheet pan chicken teriyaki, sliced, with roasted broccoli and white rice in a sage bowl on a granite counter
Example: after cooking sheet pan chicken teriyaki, you note that you thinned the sauce with chicken stock, and Plaited saves the recipe as version 2.

After you cook, snap a photo and say what you changed. Plaited works it into the recipe for next time and keeps every earlier version, so the original is never lost.

Coming soon to iPhone and Android.

Every cook leaves a note in the margin.

Here’s that teriyaki over three cooks. Each note became the next version of the recipe. Not every change works out, so you cook from whichever version you like best.

  1. 1Cook like you always do.
  2. 2Add a photo and a line about what you changed. About a minute.
  3. 3Plaited updates the ingredients and steps, and keeps the old version.

Sheet pan chicken teriyaki

3 versions
  1. First cook: sliced teriyaki chicken with roasted broccoli and rice
    v1 · July 21“Made more sauce this time. Good, still a little dry.”
  2. Second cook: teriyaki chicken in a bowl, fork in hand
    v2 · Aug 14Cooking from this one“Thinned the teriyaki with stock so it simmers instead of burning.”+ ¼ cup chicken stock, mixed into the sauce
  3. Third cook: teriyaki chicken with broccoli and rice
    v3 · Sept 25“Too much stock. The sauce never thickened.”− ¼ cup chicken stock+ ¾ cup chicken stock, 1 to 1 with the teriyaki

v3 went too far, so this recipe cooks from v2. Your original stays put, and every version is one tap away.

Good recipes get passed around.

Your cooks show up in your friends’ feed: real dinners, not styled photos. When a friend saves one of your recipes, they get their own copy to change. Yours stays exactly as it is.
