How to Save Recipes from YouTube
Turn 15-minute cooking videos and YouTube Shorts into perfectly formatted recipes with Minichef.
YouTube is great for learning techniques, but practically useless when you’re actually in the kitchen trying to cook. Pausing and rewinding a video with messy hands is a nightmare.
Minichef can turn any YouTube cooking video or Short into a structured recipe in seconds.
How it works
Minichef analyzes the YouTube video and the video description to pull out the exact ingredients and step-by-step instructions.
- When watching a recipe on YouTube, tap the Share button under the video.
- Select Minichef from the share menu.
- Wait a few seconds while Minichef watches the video for you!
- Save the cleanly formatted recipe to your collection.
Troubleshooting
“The import is taking a long time.” For longer videos (over 10 minutes), it might take Minichef’s AI a little extra time to analyze the entire transcript and pull out the relevant cooking steps.
“Can it save from YouTube Shorts?” Yes! The process is exactly the same. Just tap the share button on the Short.
