Recipics


I’m not sure these text-free recipe diagrams would work for me; after all, after however many years, I still don’t understand what those little laundry labels in my clothes mean. I am definitely a word person, not an image person. But the pictures are appealing; I could imagine a poster decorating my kitchen wall…
Meanwhile, the designer is apparently still working out some of the bugs in this system: “The ingredients are still a work in progress,” she said in the New York Times; “For example, it’s hard to explain the difference between flour, baking powder, anthrax and cocaine without words.”
OK! Let me know when you work that out…

    Ha! That last part is hilarious. I could see it making a really fun kitchen border too!

    Have you seen Mollie Katzen’s “Pretend Soup” cookbook for kids? She has the recipe in word form first, then in pictures (with some words). I think it’s the perfect balance of words and pictures. They are very simple recipes, though…
