About us
Overview
Supercook wants to make life easier for everyone who cooks at home! Our mission is to enable smarter, quicker decisions about what recipes to make and what ingredients to use using advanced technology and all the recipe content on the web. Created in 2008 and based in New York, Supercook has a distinct focus on solving the practical problems of modern home cooks: how to waste less food, how to use up perishable or seasonal ingredients, how to keep track of everything in the kitchen, how to save time and money. For more information on what makes Supercook unique and how to use the service, see our FAQ. To see what people are saying about us, check our Press page.

Management Team
Assaf Rozenblatt, Founder
Assaf created Supercook in 2008 and continues to lead its product development, technology, and research efforts. Assaf was originally inspired to create Supercook after watching Iron Chef one night. He had two key insights: 1) that everyone should be able to be their own Iron Chef and 2) that the challenge of knowing the best recipes for a given ingredient is largely an "information" problem! An avid cook and an expert in AI and search technologies, Assaf was the founder of Brainboost, a unique natural language search engine (later acquired by Answers.com).
