Let’s face it: home cooking can get a bit repetitive. After a long day at the office (or dining table-cum-WFH desk), attempting a new dish is probably the last thing on your mind. Relying on a repertoire of easy recipes is par for the course – and, hey, there’s nothing wrong with that.
But sometimes your culinary routine needs shaking up. Samsung’s latest flagship smartphone, Galaxy S25 Ultra, is bursting with Galaxy AI1 features that make this a simple endeavour. Here are a few ways this super-smart software can turn trying new recipes from a chore into your new hobby.
1. Make new recipes more digestible
The first port of call for finding a new Monday night dinner is undoubtedly a quick Google search. Many online recipes are prefaced by lengthy blog posts, which, despite making for a charming read, often leave us scrolling to find the actual method.
Galaxy AI Browsing Assist2 comes in handy here. Tap the three-star icon at the bottom of the Samsung Internet app UI and click ‘Summarise’. The information from the webpage is then condensed into a digestible format in seconds – saving you precious time.
Food content creator, Rachel Smith, also likes to save recipes so she can evolve them over time. She recommends copying the text from a recipe web page into the Samsung Notes app. There, the Note Assist3 feature can intuitively break down and restructure a recipe to make it clear and concise.
[It makes recipes] a lot more organised and easier to read.

2. Labels in another language? No problem.
If you fancy dabbling in a new cuisine, browsing the international aisle at the supermarket might be in order. Ingredients shipped to the UK usually have an extra label explaining what they are in English – but the original packaging is often brimming with product information and serving suggestions that get left by the wayside.
Simply open the camera app on the S25 Ultra, bring the packaging text into view and tap it on-screen. The phone will highlight the text and give the option to translate it into your language using AI. You’ll know exactly what you’re buying and how to use it properly – so you don’t end up drowning your pad see ew noodles in too much soy sauce.
3. Looks great, tastes even better
Whether you’re cooking for friends and family, or even just for yourself, plating food up in style puts smiles on faces. You don’t need to be a top chef to do this – Galaxy AI Drawing Assist4 makes it easy for everyone. It can generate images from a simple written prompt, so you can get inspiration for the presentation of any meal in seconds.
That’s it, the power to elevate your evening meals is in your hands – and it doesn’t end there. Take your S25 Ultra into the kitchen with you to set timers by voice command, and even snap a stunning picture of the finished product with its dedicated Food mode.
Switching up your weekday meal repertoire doesn’t need to be a slog. With a little help from Galaxy AI, you’ll be cooking up a storm in no time.
It’s really important to make an effort with presentation – we eat with our eyes, first.
