Kitchen & Bar

How to get around

The bar under the name is the map. Swipe it sideways if a destination sits off-screen. On Tonight, the button pinned to the bottom cooks the lead dish.

  1. Tonight — What you can cook first, plus drinks that fit the same shelf.

  2. This week — Five dinners from the shelf, urgent things cooked first.

  3. Shelf — Edit what you actually own.

  4. Written methods — Every dish and drink with a method somebody wrote out.

  5. The pantry — Start from one ingredient: what it does, and everything built on it.

  6. Out of it — What to use instead, judged by the job the missing thing was doing.

  7. Photo review — Review a demo shelf photo and confirm every item before adding it.

  8. Flavor Lab — Pairings with a track record: classic matches and the mixology behind them.

  9. Wild cards — Combinations with no tradition behind them, only shared aroma notes.

  10. Send to Occasion OS — Prepare confirmed shelf availability for Occasion OS.

  11. The field — The gap this layer owns.

Keep it on the home screen

  1. iPhone — tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
  2. Android — open the browser menu, then Install app or Add to Home screen.

After that it opens as Kitchen & Bar, not a browser tab. Inventory stays on this device.

Sweetness with a floral edge and enough body to change the texture of what it is in. It seizes when it hits cold liquid, which is why a drink wants it thinned with warm water first.

What it is usually standing next to

Nothing dominates: the most common companion, lemon, appears in only 26% of them, so this is an ingredient that gets around.

Counted off required ingredients across the whole corpus. A companion listed here is one these dishes are built from, not one we are recommending.

If you have twenty minutes

Quickest dish · 3 min

Honey yogurt

Breakfast that costs nothing extra. A pinch of salt makes the honey taste louder. Fruit if it is there, not required.

Quickest drink · 4 min

Bee's Knees

Gin, lemon and honey, invented to make bad Prohibition gin drinkable and still excellent with good gin.

Built on it · 93

Take it out and the dish is something else. Fastest first.

These work without it. They work better with it.
