Rednote to Recipe ConverterAny Xiaohongshu cooking video → ingredients & steps

Check the note's text under the video and the creator's pinned comment first. If neither has the recipe, copy the note's link and paste it into the converter on this page: CookingGuru writes out the ingredients, quantities and steps from what is said and shown in the video. It's free, with no account needed for your first 2 conversions.

Tap Share on the note, choose Copy link, paste the link into the converter on this page, and press Convert. In about ten seconds you get a titled recipe with measured ingredients and numbered steps, taken from the on-screen text, the voiceover, and the note's text.

Yes — the Rednote (Xiaohongshu) to recipe converter is free to use with no credit card. You get 2 conversions with no account, or 5 per month (and up to 5 saved recipes) with a free account. Create an account only if you want the higher limit or to save recipes.

Yes. Most Rednote cooking videos are in Chinese, and the converter reads Chinese on-screen text and transcribes Chinese voiceovers the same way it handles English ones.

Yes, Rednote is the English name for Xiaohongshu (小红书), and links from either work. Paste the link exactly as the app's Copy link gives it to you: xhslink.com short links and full xiaohongshu.com or rednote.com links are all fine.

Convert the video here, then press Copy Recipe (this needs a free account). The title, ingredients and steps go to your clipboard as plain text, ready to paste into Notes, a message, or a shopping list.

Rednote's Collect only bookmarks the note, so the recipe is gone if the creator deletes it. Converting it and pressing Save keeps the written recipe in your CookingGuru cookbook. A free account holds up to 5 saved recipes; Pro is unlimited.

Yes. Convert the video, then press Cmd + P (Mac) or Ctrl + P (Windows), or Share → Print on iPhone. The recipe prints cleanly as a one- or two-page card.

Image notes (photo carousels — only video notes are supported for now), private or deleted notes, and silent videos with no text in the note and no readable on-screen text. The converter also can't invent a quantity that was never shown or said anywhere in the video.

Yes. The free CookingGuru iPhone app appears in the share sheet, so you can send a video note straight to it without copying the link. On Android or desktop, use this website — it works in any browser with nothing to install.

Yes. You can convert 2 cooking videos into recipes without an account at all, and a free account raises that to 5 conversions a month with up to 5 saved recipes. Nothing is charged unless you choose to upgrade, and there is no credit card required to use the free tiers.

No. Paste a video link into the converter and you get a full recipe back — ingredients, measurements, and steps — without signing up. Anonymous use is capped at 2 conversions per 30 days; you only need a free account to go beyond that or to save recipes to a cookbook.

Both. CookingGuru is a free iPhone and iPad app on the App Store (CookingGuru: Recipe Manager) and a website, and either works on its own. In the app you share a TikTok or Instagram Reel straight from the app you're watching it in, and the recipe lands in your cookbook. cooking.guru does the same conversion in any browser on desktop, Android, and iPhone with nothing to install.

Yes — the website works fully on Android in Chrome or any mobile browser, and you can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app. There is no native Android app in the Play Store yet; the native app is currently iOS only.

A subscription is optional. Pro is $4.99 a month (or $41.92 a year) and includes unlimited conversions, unlimited saved recipes, nutrition information, and PDF export, with a 7-day free trial. If you would rather not subscribe, one-off recipe credit packs start at $1.99 for 10 recipes and never expire.
