FAQ
Quick answers about Brunoise, the workflow, and what’s next.
What is Brunoise?▾
Brunoise is a digital cookbook built for cooks who want structure: folders, ingredients, and step-by-step methods you can actually use while cooking.
How do folders work?▾
Folders are your personal organization system. Each recipe belongs to one folder. Use folders for menus, weeks, projects, or any workflow you like.
What is “My Station”?▾
My Station is your default working view (your currently selected folder). It’s designed for sharing and discovery—recipes created there default to Public.
How do I make a recipe Private?▾
When creating or editing a recipe, toggle Visibility to Private. If you’re in My Station, pick another folder first to enable Private.
How does ingredient search work?▾
In Add Recipe → Ingredients, type to search the ingredient master list. If you can’t find an ingredient, just type your own name—Brunoise will save it as custom text.
Can I add multiple ingredients quickly?▾
Yes. Select multiple ingredients from the search results, set Qty/Unit/Notes, then press Add to append them to the list.
What is Select vs Type in Steps?▾
Each step can be created in Select mode (Action/Time/Temp/Equipment + optional detail) or Type mode (free text). Select mode also generates a clean sentence for the step.
Why are some features disabled?▾
If a feature is disabled, hover it to see exactly why and how to enable it. Plan-gated features (like dish photos) can be enabled via Settings → Billing.
Do public recipes appear in The Pass?▾
Yes. The Pass shows all Public recipes shared by everyone. Tap Show More to open the full recipe page.
What’s coming next?▾
Ingredient scaling, pantry AND-filter, better recipe cards, step timers, richer pro-mode actions, drag-and-drop step ordering, and more structured equipment/temperature presets.
