Create your kitchen
A kitchen is the shared home for your recipes, meal plans, shopping lists and pantry. Setting one up takes two short steps, and your 14-day free trial starts with it.

Steps
- Go to app.hedgehogchef.com, choose Create an account, and sign in with your email, Google or Apple. Verify your email address if you're asked to.
- Step 1 of 2: give your kitchen a name (everyone you invite sees it), pick US or metric measurements and an appearance, accept the Terms, and tap Continue.
- Step 2 of 2: tell it who you're cooking for: household size, diets, allergies and foods to avoid, cuisines you love, and whether to use AI features. Or tap Skip for now.
- Tap Create my kitchen. A short tour shows you around.
Joining someone else's kitchen instead
If someone invited you, open their invite link, or choose Got an invite code? Join a kitchen instead during set-up and enter the code. See Invite or remove people.
Where it's available
New kitchens can be started only from the United States and its territories. Everything you entered in step 2 can be changed later in Settings › Household & diet.
The rules, in the Terms
