It is also one of the most expensive cooking encyclopedias, the original six volume version retailing for $500, with the two-volume that followed after that selling for $115. Now, Nathan and his team have transformed their huge food encyclopedia into an iPhone/iPad app. It’s not just a digital book, but rather an expensive $80 interactive app that can do more than just provide recipes. The interactive digital cookbook is the fruit of a development team of 10-15 people that have worked over nine months on the project. The contains 37 technique videos, 416 recipes and 1,683 photos. It’s a smart cooking app where, as Daniel Eran Dilger with AppleInsider puts it: Obviously, the Modernist Cuisine app is much more suitable to be used on the iPad, than the iPhone. Matt MacInnis, the founder and CEO of Inkling, the publishing platform used to deliver the iPad app said the following about Myhrvold’s intention: Among the top features that the Modernist Cuisine app comes with are the high-resolutions pictures and the ability to search within the app’s own information which will also fetch extra data from Wikipedia and other web services.
