The software is a recipe and cooking notes management tool that enables users to create, edit and browse their recipes, wine notes and cooking notes conveniently.
What's more, you can import your MasterCook, MasterCook Mac, and Meal-Master recipes into MacGourmet, and even share your favorite recipes and notes with others by publishing them to your .Mac account. And if you prefer to share them in other ways, MacGourmet also makes it easy to export them, complete with pictures, or publish them with export files that you can simply drag from a web page into your recipe box.
In addition to recipes, MacGourmet allows you to save notes and labels for wines you've had, creating a digital wine scrapbook. You can even link certain wines to recipes that go well with them. Likewise, you can keep lists of cooking notes that contain general nuggets of wisdom applicable to all recipes.
MacGourmet offers many ways to organize and view your recipes and notes, including the option to create smart lists that update themselves based on search criteria you specify. And with its large, colorful item views that include images and notes, as well as the ability to open categories in their own windows, browsing and searching for recipes is a breeze in MacGourmet.
Searching for specific recipes is also a cinch, thanks to powerful find functionality that lets you filter on text in the recipe name, rate your recipes, keep track of the ones you've prepared, and more. Plus, MacGourmet's Quick Find feature allows you to enter the ingredients you have on hand – or don't have, for that matter – and see which recipes you can make.
But perhaps one of MacGourmet's biggest selling points is how easy it makes sharing your recipes and notes with others. You can quickly create web pages of recipes that others can read and import, or publish them to any WebDav server or your local file system. Importing recipes from the web into MacGourmet is also a breeze, simply by dragging a recipe link into the app.
In short, MacGourmet is the ultimate software for anyone looking to take their recipe organization to the next level. With its easy organization options, powerful search functionality, and painless publishing capabilities, it's like having "iTunes" for recipes!
