One-click import

Add the Scale this recipe button to your browser’s bookmarks. Then, on any recipe page, click it and the recipe opens here, ready to scale.

Scale this recipe

Drag this button to your bookmarks bar. Clicking it here doesn’t do anything.

On a computer

  1. Show your bookmarks bar: Ctrl+Shift+B on Windows, or ⌘+Shift+B on a Mac.
  2. Drag the Scale this recipe button onto it. If you’d rather not drag, copy the bookmark code and add a bookmark by hand with the code as its address.
  3. On a recipe page, click Scale this recipe.

On a phone or tablet

  • iPhone and iPad: copy the bookmark code, bookmark any page, then edit that bookmark: name it Scale this recipe and paste the code as its address. On a recipe page, open your bookmarks and tap it.
  • Android: copy the bookmark code, add a bookmark, then edit it: name it Scale this recipe and paste the code as its address. On a recipe page, type Scale this recipe in the address bar and tap the bookmark.

On a phone, pasting the recipe’s link on the home page is often quicker.

What it does

  • It reads the recipe page you’re looking at, in your own browser, and hands it to Pinchwise in a new tab. Nothing goes through our server.
  • It works on sites that block automatic imports and on recipes you subscribe to. Like a pasted recipe, the copy is for your own use, credited and linked to the original.
  • If a page has no recipe data, select the recipe’s text first, then click the bookmark.
  • Sites whose owners have asked not to be imported are left alone.
