Nintendo DS as cooking buddy

First Cooking Mama, now Cooking Guide: Can't decide what to eat?. Seriously, these Nintendo folks are hungry.

I kid you not, this press release landed in my inbox today, and I couldn't help myself. I mean, how odd, yet how logical - an interactive cookbook that lets you search using your voice and then speaks you through the steps. Lighter than a book and doesn't require one of those expensive cookbook stands either. More info:



Once a decision has been made about what to eat, users can set about creating a culinary masterpiece with the Cooking Guide chef who will talk you through each step of the way. As your hands will be busy preparing and cooking the ingredients, simply speak into the Nintendo DS's microphone to progress through each stage of the recipe. Each step can be repeated as many times as necessary, so you can prepare your meal at your own pace.



BBC food website - that treasure trove of new recipes - your days in my kitchen are numbered.
