New Recipe Feature to Make Cooking Easier

Introducing Cook Mode

Cooking can be a challenging and messy process, especially when you’re multitasking and trying to keep track of multiple steps. At EatingWell, we understand the frustration of having your screen go dark in the middle of cooking, making it difficult to refer to your recipe. That’s why we’re excited to announce the launch of our new cook mode feature on our recipes!

A Problem We’ve All Faced

We’ve all been there – you’re in the middle of cooking, and suddenly your screen goes dark. You try to wake it up, but it’s too late. You’ve forgotten what step you’re on, and you’re left standing in front of the stove, wondering what to do next. It’s a common problem that can be frustrating and stressful.

The Solution: Cook Mode

Our new cook mode feature is designed to solve this problem. By toggling on the cook mode setting, you can keep your screen awake until you close the tab. This means you can refer to your recipe without worrying about your screen going dark, even when you’re multitasking.

How It Works

To use cook mode, simply toggle on the setting above the ingredient list on every recipe. This will keep your screen awake until you close the tab. You can also prop up your phone in the kitchen with the recipe displayed, and quickly glance or scroll for the next steps.

What Our Team Has to Say

We asked our team to share their thoughts on the new cook mode feature. Here’s what they had to say:

“I cook from my phone practically every single night, and the worst situation to be in is when you’re working with raw meat or chopping veggies and the screen saver goes on and you can’t remember what to do next,” says EatingWell’s assistant general manager Penelope Wall.

“When I cook, I’m a multitasker. I have three pots going at once with my audiobook blasting in the background,” says associate editor Dani DeAngelis. “So cook mode gives me one less thing to worry about. I can prop up my phone in the kitchen with the recipe displayed, and all I’ll need to do is quickly glance or scroll for the next steps.”

“When I’m baking, it’s such a pain when my computer goes to sleep right when my hands are covered in flour or raw cookie dough,” says news, trending and updates editor Abigail Demarest. “Yay for flour-free keyboards!”

Conclusion

We’re excited to bring this new feature to our recipes, and we hope you appreciate it as much as we do! With cook mode, you can cook with confidence, knowing that your screen will stay awake until you’re finished.
