What Cook and Scale does in ChatGPT
The Cook and Scale plugin gets recipes into your Cook and Scale recipe book from ChatGPT. You can dictate a family dish, work out a dinner together in the chat or share something you read, and it arrives as a proper recipe with servings that scale and a picture.
Beyond recipes, it keeps track of what is in your cupboards and suggests a dinner from it. It will also plan your meals for the week and group your recipes into collections. Published recipes on Cook and Scale get their own page in up to six languages and rescale when someone changes the servings.
Anything the assistant adds lands privately in your Recipe inbox for you to review. Publishing is always something you do yourself on the website. When you connect, you pick which of seven permissions to give, and you can change or remove them later.
