I’m excited to announce the release of Sharp Cooking v1.11.0! This update brings several new features and improvements to enhance your cooking experience. 1. Set Recipe Language One of the new features allows you to set the language for individual recipes. For example, when my mom sends me one of her amazing recipes in Portuguese, I can now set the recipe language accordingly.

Now, not only can you input nutrition values manually, but recipes imported from websites supporting nutrition values will also display them in the recipe view. To generate these labels, we first need to gather the nutritional data for each recipe.
