Dear Reader,
Whether you sent me an email or a DM or just inquired over dinner, you’ve been asking and we’ve been listening: You want an app where you can search all of our beautifully photographed recipes and save your favorites. And now, I’m delighted to share that we just launched our new Epicurious iOS app.
With over 50,000 recipes, the app contains all of Bon Appétit’s recipes, as well as the vast archives from our sister brand Epicurious, including original recipes from the test kitchen, the beloved magazine Gourmet, cookbooks we love, and so much more. And, as if 50,000 weren’t enough, we’ll be adding new recipes all the time.
I’m so excited about the app. With its elegant mobile-first design, it allows you to browse by topics like ingredient, cuisine, and occasion, and to personalize your experience. Is your family vegetarian or gluten-free? No problem; select your dietary preference and get customized recommendations. Looking for a great holiday party starter and want only Bon Appétit recipes? The app can limit search by brand. If instead you’re just looking for fun ways to use up the beautiful squash or mushrooms in your fridge, check out the whole breadth of recipes. We also have editors’ picks and weeknight-friendly filters (think sheet-pan dinners, dishes you can cook in 30 minutes or less, one-pot meals) for when you need inspiration fast.
For me, the app takes the fuss out of thinking about what to make for dinner. Last week, I tried the Everything-Spice Fish With Tomato Salad, which I remember mentally bookmarking when the recipe landed across my desk—and now I can save right in the Epicurious app. Next up is Easy-Fancy Pear Galette, perfect for a festive dessert.
We’re positive the app will help you find cooking inspiration. If you’re already a BA or Epi subscriber, the app is included in your subscription—simply head to the app store to download the app and log in using the email address associated with your account or visit our FAQ page here. And if you’re not a subscriber, what are you waiting for? We have all kinds of great recipes waiting for you—try the app now with a seven-day free trial.
Wishing you a happy holiday season,
Dawn
