I remember my mom and my grandmother both had big recipe collections that they kept on 3 x 5 index cards. When it came time to cook dinner for a special occasion they would go to the box and pull out something to make that was usually good.

Today’s moms and grandmothers don’t have to mess with a big box of index cards for their recipes with digital alternatives available. A new device from Key Ingredient has been unveiled called the Demy digital recipe reader.

If you do a lot of cooking, you’ve probably thought about getting a laptop or other device just for your kitchen so you can always have recipes on hand. The Demy Digital Recipe Reader is all you need for your recipe needs. It will show you all of your ingredients so you can make light Martha Stewart. The device is small so it won’t take up much room and it has a touchscreen display.

If you’re looking for something new to eat, it features a recipe database as well. The built-in memory will let you store 2,500 recipes. You can transfer them via USB. As you might expect, it’s splash resistant and even has three cooking timers, a substitutions database and a conversion tool. You can pre-order it for $299 and it will be available by the end of the month.
