The South Korean cooking application 10,000 Recipe has achieved 1,000만 이용자의 선택!, cementing its status as a leading digital culinary platform for home cooks seeking meal solutions, according to company data from operator EZHLD. Designed to assist users ranging from cooking novices to experienced home chefs, the platform hosts over 20만여 개의 레시피 user-generated and curated recipes complete with step-by-step images, instructional videos, and practical culinary tips categorized by dish type, preparation situation, and main ingredients.
Core Features and Digital Culinary Tools
According to EZHLD, 10,000 Recipe provides an array of functional tools designed to streamline daily meal planning and grocery shopping. The application features a “Refrigerator Emptying” function that allows users to input specific ingredients they currently have on hand to generate tailored recipe recommendations while filtering out excluded items. Additional tools include a grocery list memo pad, a material-based search function that finds alternative dishes using specific components, and a dedicated Q&A section where users can troubleshoot cooking challenges. Furthermore, the platform integrates an e-commerce section, the Man-gae Store, which offers curated kitchen deals and a 20,000-won coupon discount pack for newly registered users.
User Engagement and Feedback Trends
User feedback highlights the application’s utility for households navigating seasonal meal planning, such as school vacations when parents must prepare additional meals at home. Many reviewers note that the platform’s multi-user recipe variations allow beginners to compare different approaches and adapt dishes to personal preferences. However, recent user reviews also point out technical hurdles, including occasional blank white screens during ingredient and dish name searches, as well as navigation inconveniences such as the lack of a direct home button to return to the application’s main screen.
Recent Platform Updates and Software Maintenance
According to official release notes published by EZHLD, the platform has undergone continuous maintenance and usability improvements through regular software updates released throughout 2024 and 2025. Recent version deployments, culminating in update version 6.4.5 released in May 2025, focused primarily on bug fixes and system optimization. Prior functional rollouts included the addition of the recipe Q&A feature in July 2024, the grocery list memo pad and ingredient-based search tools in April 2024, and user recipe registration capabilities introduced in January 2024.
