This app teaches you cooking principles that you can apply to any dish. The quizzes are short and fun. The recipies are generally a bit complex (but there are still a few simpler recipes available). There aren't a lot of recipies but that isn't a problem because you can apply the skills you learn to any recipe (in theory, I haven't actually made anything yet). I wish It would give you a bit more of a push to make your first recipe once you've completed all of the quizzes for it

i love this app! parsnip breaks down every step of the cooking process. recipes can go over ingredients (what to look for when buying, how to store, how to prepare), cooking or preparing processes (mincing, boiling, simmering), and where you have to follow the recipe vs where you can improvise. understanding the WHY behind cooking makes that recipe easier AND helps with similar dishes in the future. I'm very happy with the app :)))

Parsnip has such a cool concept and actually teaches you a lot about food and cooking. The design is fun and clean, with no ads or bugs to ruin the experience. However, it’s a bit too limited if you’re not a premium user, since you're only able to learn 3 concepts a day. Still, it's a neat app with solid potential.
