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.

Crisp pork with onion, chili and lime

After Sisig

Chopped pork, a lot of onion, chili, lime, egg on top. Sizzling if you can. It should be sour-hot, not a hash.

Why tonight. Chopped pork, a lot of onion, chili, lime, egg on top. Sizzling if you can. It should be sour-hot, not a hash.

What it needs

Nothing confirmed on your shelf yet — this list is the whole ask.

  • pork
  • onion
  • chili flakes
  • lime
  • eggs

Good if you have them, fine if you do not: mayo.

Method

  1. Pork cooked until tender first, then chopped small and fried hard in its own fat until the edges are genuinely crisp. Two cooks, and the second one is where the dish happens.
  2. Onion and chili in at the very end so they keep their bite.
  3. Lime off the heat, and a great deal of it.
  4. Egg cracked over it at the table on a plate hot enough to set it. Rich, sour, sharp and crunchy at once — and the moment it goes soft it is over.

An educational plan from a curated corpus. Not a nutrition, allergen, or doneness guarantee.

Cook or pour it, then edit the shelf if you emptied a bottle or used the last of something.

Why each of these is on the list

What the ingredients are actually doing

pork
The forgiving meat. Shoulder takes hours and rewards them, chops take minutes and punish you for one too many, and the fat is the flavor in both cases.
onion
The base under most of this library.
chili flakes
Heat you can dose. Bloomed in oil they spread through everything; scattered at the table they stay sharp and sit on top. Same flakes, two different dishes.
lime
Sharper and more floral than lemon, and it fades faster — juice it the same hour you use it.
eggs
The cheapest way to turn a side dish into dinner.

Missing one of them? The substitutions are written against those jobs rather than against a chart, so they say what each replacement costs this dish in particular.

Cook it, then tell the shelf what you used.

The ranking is only as honest as the shelf behind it. Empty the cream, and everything that leaned on cream should stop being offered.
