    • One of the reasons I love cooking is a break from screens. A binder for me too, some written, some printed, most covered in splotches. Soz!MrT
    • @MrT, I KEEP trying, BUT how about both?! We used to have a magnetic iPad case back in the day and we'd put it on the fridge with JUST the recipe on it...ideaist
    • I like paprika. Downloads paywalled recipes, and with a family, the meal planning and shopping features are tits.robotinc
    • We've got tons of books, recipes from around the world... But latelly, we've stopped experimenting and are moving towards a menu of about 15 dishes.OBBTKN
    • Like MrT says, for me is a way to from being away from the screensOBBTKN

    • When I find stuff to keep, I hit Print, save to PDF and drop it into a heirarchal folder in Drive (Main, Sides, etc.). Then when I'm ready, I grab the PDF and..elahon
    • print it off. I make notes on the sheet (keeper, change this or that next time), then pop it into a folder I keep by the microwave.elahon
    • Library, even keep magazine subscriptions, and then notebooks of spider charts and the flavor bible. Make your own recipes when you've nailed the techniques.canoe

    • Nice @akiersky; haven't heard of it!ideaist
    • Poorly and hastily scrawled 'directions' on quarters of A4 paper, with a vague nod towards quantities, is my preferred methodology.Nairn
    • Bonus points for losing, then repeating, then finding four copies of the same recipe (all not so subtly different to each oth) in a manila folder, months later.Nairn
    • Even betterer - going off-piste on a recipe and coming out with something fantastic, like I did just the other week, whilst becidered, then forgetting it all.Nairn
    • @nairn, the Keith Floyd method, love it. Wasted cooking is also fun, but then even less chance of an app being involved...MrT
