Four days after its initial release, Dishy which is a new app for iphone has become the fastest selling cooking application on the UK iTunes App Store. Fundamentally, Dishy promises to make cooking easy and is billed as a recipe book, shopping list and a step-by-step guide to actually cooking a meal in one. 95 included recipes, developed by an in-house chef, are searchable by dietary requirements, ingredients, measured in metric or imperial and cooking time. You can basically choose what ever you like! It really does make a difference from just getting a recipe out of food books. This has loads of useful confectionery recipe ideas for people like students and people in a hurry for example!

Users choose one or more dishes to cook along with how many. Dishy then creates an interactive shopping list on your iphone that can be ticked off as you walk around the shopping mall. The app itself guides the user through the cookery procedure one step at a time and you can manually flick in between the menus. Timing is everything for the app itself and it will have a built in timer and alarm depending on which dish you are trying to cook. This app is really ground breaking for the culinary world and I think this could offer people a different way to cook their meals in the future. Technology is moving so fast on the iphone especially and this is just a fantastic idea. The application is available for purchase from the app store at just £1.79 for a very short period of time. The normal price will then be moving to £2.99 soon. The app also requires the iphone 2.2.1 software update.

Currently, I do not own an iphone but I cannot wait until it comes out as this is one of the first apps I am buying for sure!
