hey everyone welcome to the inside scoop I'm CNET's car Tsuboi joined by Jay mark Habibi associate editor and well viewers it's that time of year we're all cooking big family meals for the holidays and j-mart has got a few apps Android apps right that might be able to help with the process Jay Mohr what's your first go-to holiday cooking app well the first one I really like is called in the kitchen it's made by the Food Network and you know I'm a pretty big fan of the Food Network I like some of their celebrity chefs and one of the great things about the app is that you can actually search by celebrity chef so you can just go through some of their profiles click on the one that you like and look at some of their favorite recipes like if you just love Bobby Flay and want to grill that bird and all the sides some Southwest action in there yeah yeah I like that is that a free app totally actually no science dollar ninety-nine okay they're pretty well worth it it sounds like to get the recipes of celebrities yeah yeah and and they're all in there all your favorites some of some of the chef's they only have a few recipes in there there's like Morimoto I think he only has like five recipes in there but some of the other ones have literally thousands of their recipes in there very cool what's the next app that you like it's called big oven and that has over 250,000 recipes in it and that's really the reason that I like that when it's the biggest kitchen database I've ever seen some of the other things it offers is a kitchen timer useful which is really important yeah and then there's a unit conversion tool to go from grams ounces we're like pints to quarts and things like that yeah because if you're following recipes that are safe from you know England you're they're gonna weigh different measurements Horace yeah nice and third and final app it's called cook Li it's also free big ovens free to but cook --let's free and one of the things I really like about cook Li is the interface design it's it's gorgeous there's there's a screen called inspiration and it's a little bit like an Instagram type screen so it's picture based you can just go through all of the photos of recipes and then click on the ones you like from there so this is a pretty new app isn't it it is it's really young actually and and there's a lot of bugs in it because it's so young but I think to make up for that is is the interface design which is just it's gorgeous unarguably very cool thank you so much for the tips Jay mark OBB associate editor I'm Kara Tsuboi thanks for watching the inside scoop
