About this app

Optimal Turkey helps home chefs plan and execute complex multi-dish meals by automatically generating optimal cooking schedules. Coordinate multiple dishes, manage limited kitchen resources (ovens, stovetops, microwaves), and deliver a perfectly-timed feast—every time.

Safety note

Cooking involves inherent risks. Always follow food safety guidelines, use proper kitchen equipment safely, and consult trusted recipes and resources. Optimal Turkey provides planning and scheduling assistance but does not replace proper cooking knowledge, food safety practices, or common sense.
