How to Save Recipes from TikTok

Stop losing recipes when your FYP refreshes. Save TikToks directly to Minichef and get the full recipe instantly.

We’ve all been there: you find an amazing recipe on TikTok, but when you go to make it, the video is impossible to follow, or worse—your FYP refreshed and it’s gone forever.

Minichef solves this. You don’t need to rewatch a 30-second video ten times to catch the measurements.

How it works

Minichef uses AI to “watch” the TikTok video or read the caption, instantly extracting the ingredients and instructions into a clean, easy-to-read format.

  1. Find a recipe video on TikTok.
  2. Tap the Share (arrow) icon.
  3. Scroll through the apps and select Minichef. (If you don’t see it, tap More).
  4. Minichef will open and generate the recipe for you.

Troubleshooting

“The recipe is missing some ingredients.” Sometimes creators don’t mention all measurements in the video or caption. In these rare cases, you can easily tap to edit the draft in Minichef and add what’s missing.

“I don’t see Minichef in the share menu.” Make sure you have the Minichef Share Extension enabled in your iOS or Android settings. Check out our guide on adding Minichef to your shortcuts.
