HP TouchSmart Recipe Box

Not available in all countries/regions. Internet connection required.
The Recipe Box tile is an interactive way to have your computer dictate recipe ingredients and procedures
while you cook. As you do the preparation and cooking, the computer talks you through it. If you need
more time, you tell it to stop, and then when you are ready, it continues from where it left off.
The computer needs to be fairly close to the kitchen for the interactive feature to work well. Alternatively, a
Bluetooth connection allows interaction from a much greater distance. To enable a Bluetooth connection,
tap Settings and tap Next through the Bluetooth wizard to set up your headset. When you connect the
next time, you automatically connect to the previous Bluetooth headset selected. You can also do a quick
search for other Bluetooth devices.
First, choose a category, such as Desserts, Meals, Seafood, or Starters. You can add other
categories and choose an icon to attach to that category, and then you can edit it later. Choose the dish
you want to make.
Tap the information guide to enable voice commands. The information guide recites all ingredients and
then the procedures. You do not need to refer to a recipe; you get it all by the HP TouchSmart voice
instruction. The instructions stop after each line, so you can complete the procedure at your own pace.
When you say the command to Start, the guide gives you the recipe, but stops after each line until you say
Continue.
You can ask the guide to Repeat, and the guide repeats from the last line. You can also choose to have the
guide read the entire recipe.
You can also add recipes manually, or copy and paste them. Or browse for a recipe on the Internet from a
selected list of online recipes.
If you are the kind of cook who edits your recipes, you can also edit recipes and then save them for your
archives.
