Hedgehog Chef, step by step
-
Import
Save a recipe from anywhere.
Paste a link from any recipe site, snap a cookbook page or a handwritten card, or bring your whole Paprika library. TikTok, Instagram and YouTube links work too, when the recipe is in the caption or description.
- Share straight from Safari, Android or Claude
- Duplicates spotted before you import them twice
-
Just the recipe
Get just the recipe. No ads, no life story.
Ingredients split into amounts you can scale and convert, steps in order, times and servings filled in, and the site it came from credited and linked.
- Scale to any servings with real fractions
- Switch to metric in one tap
-
Library
Every recipe you love, in one place.
Your library, with photos for everything: binders for weeknights and holidays, favorites, ratings, tags and a search that finds “that chickpea thing”.
- No photo? You get an appetizing one
- Shared with everyone in your kitchen
-
Ask the planner
Ask for a week of dinners.
Tell the AI planner what the week needs: a budget, more protein, a vegetarian night, the spinach to use up. It plans from your recipes and pantry, and nothing changes until you tap Apply.
- “Make Tuesday vegetarian”
- “Use up the spinach before Friday”
-
Plan
Put it on the week.
Drag a recipe onto Tuesday. Leftovers and takeout fit in as free-form meals, and “copy last week” handles the weeks that look the same.
- Week board and month view
- Reminders to thaw and to start cooking
-
Shop
Shop one list, sorted by aisle.
The week's recipes become one list: amounts merged, items in the order the store is laid out, and what's already in the pantry left off. Check it off at the store and it's checked on every phone.
- Prices at the stores you choose
- Store mode for one-handed shopping
-
Cook
Cook it, one step at a time.
Cook mode shows one step in big type with just the ingredients it needs. Tap a time to start a timer; the screen stays awake while you cook.
- Voice control and read-aloud for messy hands
- Several recipes, timed to be ready together
-
Pantry
Use what you've already got.
Keep track of the fridge, freezer, pantry and spices with expiry dates. Ask “what can I make?” and your recipes are ranked by what's on hand.
- A nudge before the yogurt turns
- What you bought goes into the pantry in one tap
And around it all
Made for everyone you cook with.
