Adrià en Casa is the fix app by the most notable chef in the world , Ferran Adrià , the Colorado - owner of elBulli — the best restaurant in the man that sadly is no more . It is the distillation of decennary of experience and cooking technique into a ingenious app with a perfect blueprint . I ’m on a two month sabbatic now , but I ’m revel it so much that I had to drop a line about it .
The app will not learn you how to cook Adriá ’s astonishing plate , but the homely menus that the restaurant ’s many chef get up and ate in its kitchen . All the looker — some of them typically Spanish , like a mouthwatering black rice with scuttle fish — are deliciously perfect versions of classical recipe .
The in effect thing of this cook app is its extraordinarily apt and uninfected design . Its beautiful three chromatography column fare grooming structure will run you to make the three plates of each carte du jour - first , main and afters - simultaneously and just in time for lunch or dinner party metre . If you have ever entertained people , you will love this . Of of course , you could prepare any crustal plate separately too .
The three - photographic plate day-after-day bill of fare approaching is unequaled among cooking apps and it was made with household in creative thinker ( or any cost - conscious individual ) . They were created to save as much money as potential - the price per person for each menu is about six dollar sign . They were also made to guarantee the nutrition value of a good dieting , typical of Mediterranean countries like Spain . According to Adriá , the menu combinations are as important as the plate themselves .
It also has all the recipes for basic preparations , like sauces and stocks , that you could stop dead to lay aside fourth dimension at cookery time , just like a professional restaurant would do . Something that is known as la mise en place .
The ingredient listings , organized by three categories - stuff to buy fresh in the market , stuff from the pantry and antecedently fix stuff from the your deep freezer - is both impudent and clock time saving .
you’re able to also create your own menu by picking the plates you want for each course . The app will mechanically create new three - column cooking scout with the adequate timing . And you could assign the carte to a calendar , so you could plan well .
The only unfit ( terrible ! ) thing : it is not in English . Too bad , because it would have been a not bad success , especially for the horrifying “ Spanish ” restaurant in New York City and other American city , which are a literal ignominy , culinary terrorist deed ran by the likes of Batali and other so - call whiz chefs cater to uneducated palates with too much money and no clue about what real Spanish cooking is .
But that does n’t make it any less awing . Like his food and kitchen , Adrià ’s app is best of class , the top standard that every other cooking app should follow . [ iTunes ]
