iPad + Pencil + Apple Notes. There’s always a note that is shared and updated for the grocery list and any planned meals for the week. If I’m going to cook a dish for the first time I’ll probably just follow the source whatever it is closely but keep an eye out for things that I know are odd about my specific setup. For example if I need to sear something, I ignore the temp suggestions and just go for what I know works on my range and pans. If the recipe seems hard to follow or if the steps aren’t well organized for my time in the kitchen I’ll read over it a few times, then reorder all the steps to make it flow more easily. Then I’ll also take photos and doodle any relevant alterations. But mostly cooking is a low tech process for me.
