Most recipe apps can read a recipe. That part is solved. What almost none of them do well is the thing you actually take to the shop: one list for the whole week, correctly added up.
You plan five dinners. Three of them want onion. A good app gives you a
list. A great app gives you one line that says
3 onions — not onion three times, not
onion ×3, and not bawang bombay sitting
separately from onion because the recipe was written in a
different language.
That merging step is deceptively hard, and it is where Savory Simmer spends its effort.
Paste a recipe as text, drop in a blog URL, or photograph a cookbook page. Savory Simmer reads it into a clean, consistent card — title, ingredients with real quantities and units, steps.
Drag recipes onto the days of your week. Change your mind and drag them somewhere else.
Your list builds itself from what you planned, grouped by grocery aisle, with a checkbox for "already have it". Remove a recipe from the plan and the list updates — because it is recalculated every time you open it, never stored and left to drift.
That case is a deliberate design goal rather than an afterthought. The vocabulary covers English and Indonesian today and is built to take on more. There's a page about exactly that.
Pasted text, a blog or recipe-site URL, or a photo of a page. Video capture from TikTok, Instagram and YouTube is temporarily offline.
Every recipe belongs to the account that saved it. There is no public feed and no sharing between users. You can delete your account, and everything in it, from inside the app.
