This toolkit is a design system that explains the cooking recipe as a design artifact and provides the user, or “hacker,” with theoretical tools to redesign and adapt cooking recipes in order to promote positive changes in our food preparation practices and consumption habits.

The toolkit consists of a series of ordered instructions and actions that allow the user to organize the content of a recipe and its information in order to identify opportunities for redesign by replacing specific fields or “codes” within the recipe and applying specific criteria based on SDG 2, making food recipes more sustainable in terms of ingredients, production, nutrition, and food waste.
