Recipes and Cooking Tips

Can I adapt the quantities of a recipe?

Do you provide nutritional information?

Yes, we share nutrition details for many recipes on Basil Peak, but not for every single one just yet. These numbers come from automated calculations along with our AI estimations. Please use them for general info only.

If you’ve got allergies, dietary needs, or health concerns, it’s best to check with your healthcare provider before making a dish.
