How Cookbooker Works

The Web is a fantastic place for ratings, reviews and sharing opinions on everything, including recipes. But what about the millions of recipes locked up in cookbooks and food magazines? Until now they've been left out of the discussion.

1. Add your cookbooks
Add books, magazines, food blogs & websites to your online bookshelf. If other members own them you'll be able to see their ratings and recipe reviews right away.
2. Review your favorite recipes
Add comments and suggestions, additions, substitutions and private notes. You'll be able to easily search them later.
3. Explore
Find opinions about recipes you own but have never tried, and cookbooks you might like to buy.
4. Feel free
It costs nothing to join. You can search and browse without even becoming a member.
