Get
the whole family having fun in the kitchen
What's
for dinner? Just tap the touch screen to reveal dozens of possibilities, then
gather a team of friends or family members to help prepare it. 300 recipes have
been tested and perfected by the three dozen test cooks at America's Test Kitchen, a
2,500-square foot kitchen that is home to Cook's Illustrated and Cook's Country
magazines as well as the popular America's Test Kitchen public
television show. Now their culinary expertise promises to give everyone the
tools and knowhow to prepare spectacular meals - together.

Assigns
specific cooking roles to each family member
Features:
Everyone
in the family can get involved. The software offers up age-appropriate kitchen
tasks, so settings can be adjusted to indicate whether younger helpers are old
enough to handle knives or adjust stovetop controls.
Everyone
involved in the cooking process can rate favourite recipes. When you're looking
for a family favourite in the future, a search function makes retrieval easy.
Users can find something for every taste and occasion by browsing the 300
recipes by ingredients, difficulty, cooking time or even calorie count.
If
the cooks in your party don't know a marinade from a marmalade, prompts appear
within recipes for specific terms that they might need more information
about. Users can then watch helpful
how-to videos to show them what to do. Users also can hear audible instructions
and use voice commands to navigate the software during the cooking process.
If
multiple people on your cooking team have Nintendo DS systems, you can
wirelessly transmit select recipes to them, even if they don't have a copy of
the game card. That lets you concentrate on the entrée while your assistants
tackle the side dishes.
Just
as with a traditional cookbook, users can take notes. The software's
handwriting-recognition feature records notes about personal touches users add
to their recipes.
All
the recipes have been created by editors, food scientists, tasters and cookware
specialists at America's Test Kitchen. They've
taken the guesswork out of finding the best recipes, which leaves you and your
assistant chefs to focus on the fun of cooking.
This
game comes in a sealed retail pack.
