CuliDataBase is an application for managing culinary recipes, supporting Apple Guide Help and QuickTime. There are PPC and 68K versions; with this you have the PPC version.
A simple click with the mouse lets you put ingredients on a shopping list. Recipes can be scaled up or down according to number of servings, while the singular or plural form of the ingredients' names is taken care of as well, so '1 bay leaf ' will become '2 bay leaves' or vice versa. This works in English, French and Dutch.
To illustrate your recipes, you can import pictures of dishes.
Finally, you've got a list with culinary terms that you can extend yourself, and an Internet menu that you can modify to go to your favorite sites.
An unregistered copy of CuliDataBase is fully functional, apart from the export and print functions.
Version 5.7 remembers the desktop show/hide setting and offers better scaling up or down of recipes.
Our Review: Okay - sick of how mathematics comes into play when all you want to do is cook for more or less people than the recipe was designed for? Here is your god-send; CuliDataBase is an extensive database with a function to scale-up or scale-down the recipe to suit the number of people you need to provide food for. Pictures can be associated with recipes and clicking on ingredients that you lack adds them to a shopping list. Also included is a glossary of culinary terms to help you with any cooking jargon encountered in the recipes. Tasty!
