Not a recipe app. A kitchen partner.

Salt doesn't just serve up recipes. She thinks about your kitchen — what you have, what your family likes, what dietary goals you're working toward, and how much time you actually have tonight. Open the fridge, tell her what's there, and she builds dinner from scratch.

She understands nutrition deeply — macros, micronutrients, anti-inflammatory eating, gut health, hormone-supportive foods — and she weaves that knowledge into meals that taste like someone actually cooked them, not like a diet plan. She doesn't moralize about food. She just makes it better.

Ask her to plan the week and she'll build a full 7-day meal plan, generate the shopping list broken down by store section, scale every recipe to your family size, and adapt for anyone who doesn't eat gluten, dairy, meat, or anything else. One conversation, entire week handled.

🥦

Fridge-to-Table Recipes

Tell Salt exactly what's in your fridge, pantry, and spice rack. She builds a complete recipe — ingredients, method, timing, plating — from what you already have. Nothing wasted.

📋

Weekly Meal Planning

Full 7-day plans with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Balanced macros across the week. Variety without repetition. Designed around your family's size, schedule, and preferences.

🛒

Smart Grocery Lists

Salt converts your meal plan into a shopping list sorted by store section — produce, proteins, pantry, dairy. Quantities are exact. Nothing missing, nothing extra.

🧬

Nutritional Intelligence

Every recipe comes with a full nutritional breakdown. Macros, key micronutrients, fiber, omega-3 content. Explains how specific ingredients affect inflammation, hormones, and energy.

🌿

Anti-Inflammatory Cooking

Builds meals specifically to reduce systemic inflammation. Knows which oils to use and which to avoid, how cooking methods affect inflammatory markers, and which combinations amplify nutrient absorption.

🌾

Dietary Adaptation

Gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, keto, Mediterranean, vegetarian, vegan, low-FODMAP, AIP — Salt adapts any recipe to any dietary framework without losing flavor or balance.

🫙

Fermentation & Gut Health

Kimchi, kefir, sourdough, kombucha, sauerkraut, miso, tempeh — Salt explains the fermentation process, guides you through it, and explains the specific gut microbiome benefits of each.

⏱️

Batch Cooking & Meal Prep

Plan a Sunday prep session that stocks your fridge for the week. Salt tells you exactly what to cook first, how to store it, how long it keeps, and how to repurpose components across multiple meals.

👶

Family & Kids Cooking

Scales any recipe to your family size. Knows what kids will actually eat. Can build the same meal in two versions — one for adults, one adapted for picky eaters — using mostly the same prep.

💰

Budget-Conscious Planning

Tell Salt your weekly food budget and she'll plan around it. Seasonal ingredient substitutions that cut costs without cutting quality. Leftover strategies that stretch every purchase.

🌱

Seasonal & Local Eating

Knows what's in season month by month. Builds meals that maximize flavor by using produce at its peak. Can factor in your climate and region for more relevant suggestions.

🔥

Cooking Technique Guidance

Explains the why behind technique — why you sear before braising, how to build flavor in a pan sauce, what temperature does to protein structure. You cook better, not just this dish but every dish after.

Who Uses Salt

A few kitchens Salt calls home.

The Busy Parent Family of 4–5

Monday at 5:30pm, staring at a fridge full of things that don't obviously go together. Salt builds a real dinner in two minutes flat — and a plan for the rest of the week so you never stare at that fridge again.

She scales to your family size, works around the kid who doesn't eat onions, and generates the grocery list so Saturday's shop takes 20 minutes instead of 45.

The Health-Focused Eating with intention

You know food affects how you feel — energy, inflammation, mood, sleep — but translating that into actual meals is hard. Salt bridges the gap between nutritional science and what ends up on your plate.

Anti-inflammatory protocols, hormone-supportive eating, gut microbiome optimization — she understands the mechanisms, not just the ingredient lists, and builds meals that work with your biology.

The Home Fermenter Gut health enthusiast

Kimchi, sourdough, kefir, kombucha, sauerkraut, miso — Salt guides you through every fermentation project from first attempt to confident producer. She explains what's actually happening microbiologically so you understand when something goes right and when something doesn't.

She'll also tell you the specific strains and mechanisms that make each ferment uniquely beneficial for your gut.

The Budget Cook Making every dollar work

Tell Salt your weekly food budget and she plans backward from it. Seasonal substitutions. Whole grains over processed alternatives. Proteins that stretch across multiple meals. Nothing wasted.

$100 a week for a family of four — Salt will make it nutritionally complete, genuinely delicious, and nothing like eating on a budget feels.

Common Questions

What people ask before they start.

Does Salt remember my family's dietary restrictions from session to session?
Yes. Once you tell Salt about dietary restrictions, allergies, or food preferences — yours, your partner's, your kids' — she carries that context forward. You don't repeat yourself. She builds around it automatically.
Can I give Salt a photo of my fridge instead of typing out what's in it?
Yes. Upload a photo of your fridge, pantry, or any ingredients and Salt analyzes what she sees. She'll confirm what she identified and build recipes from it directly. Image analysis is built into every conversation.
How detailed are the grocery lists?
Exact quantities for every ingredient, organized by store section (produce, proteins, dairy, pantry, frozen). Salt accounts for what you've said you already have so you're not buying duplicates. Lists are designed to be copied directly into a notes app or sent to a grocery delivery service.
Does Salt give calorie counts and macros for recipes?
Yes. Every recipe can be served with a full nutritional breakdown — calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, fiber, and key micronutrients. Ask specifically if you want the detail, or she'll include it by default when you're working on a health goal.
Can Salt handle complex dietary situations — like AIP or multiple overlapping restrictions?
Yes, and this is where she's genuinely exceptional. AIP, low-FODMAP, keto + gluten-free + nut allergy simultaneously — Salt understands the actual rules of each framework, not just ingredient lists, and can hold multiple constraints at once without the recipes becoming bland or impractical.
What if I want to understand the nutritional science, not just the recipes?
Ask. Salt explains the mechanism behind why turmeric and black pepper are paired together, what happens to resistant starch when you cool and reheat rice, how seed cycling supports progesterone in the luteal phase. She's a kitchen partner who knows the science — not a recipe dispenser.
