How it works

Every table starts with one person.

No need to have it all. Start with what you have, and add more whenever you're ready.

Step 1: Add someone you love
A grandfather, a mother, an uncle, a friend from down the road. Living or gone. Give them a name, a place and a few words about who they are. Everything else gathers around them.
Step 2: Photograph an original
A recipe card, a notebook page, a letter. Capture it one page at a time, front and back. The moment it's saved, the original is safe. It is never edited, cropped away or replaced.
Step 3: Make it readable
We help turn handwriting into text you can cook from, in any language or script. You check it and correct it. The original is always one tap away: see it as written, as readable text, or both side by side.
Step 4: Add what you remember
The story behind the dish. The way he folded the dough. The pan she would never lend. Memories belong to the person who wrote them, and only they can change them.
Step 5: Bring one person in
Invite family by email or with a short code for the group chat. Ask them to add one recipe. That's all it takes to start. And your table is complete with just you.
Step 6: Make it a book
Choose the people and recipes you want, and we'll typeset a book you can print and keep on the shelf.

One person, one memory, one object is enough to begin.
