Abstract
A system for planning, preparation, and execution across multiple recipes and cookbooks simultaneously includes a database structure that distinguishes between different types of recipes stored in an electronic in the database. The system is further configured for performing actions such as scaling the recipe for a different number of servings, choosing between US and metric measurements, substituting ingredients, determining preparation times, determining needed cooking equipment, determining food parings from multiple cookbooks or series of cookbooks, determining wine pairings, and creating shopping lists. A corresponding method provides for users to search both e-Cookbooks and e-Recipes, where searching can be done on any number, combination of keywords or concepts.
