What you see in Cook Mode
On desktop, ingredients and steps are stacked one after the other on the same page. On mobile, they’re split into two tabs — Ingredients and Steps — and you can tap or swipe between them. If you prefer the stacked layout on mobile, you can switch to it in your account settings. The recipe name and image appear at the top so you always know which recipe you’re on.Cook multiple recipes at once
