At home
You’ve recently found a faded copy of a favorite family recipe that's been around for
generations. Dragon Dictate for Mac 3 can help capture and preserve this family
tradition. Rather than simply rewriting the recipe by hand, Dragon allows you to dictate
while you cook – the ingredients, quantities, temperatures and process – all in a simple
step-by-step format that anyone can follow. See below for some examples of how
someone might use Dragon at home to email a relative, capture a recipe, or search the
Web for new recipe ideas or a local grocery store.
