Although physically you can have more than one place where you hold your ingredients, Master Chef merges all these locations and keeps them all in just one single, generic place, called the Cabinet.
• 2. Knowing Your Suppliers
  Suppliers are the liquor shops, super-markets or groceries from where you purchase your ingredients. A supplier is a provider of any ingredient required for making the final recipe.
  Each supplier can have any ingredient, and an ingredient can be supplied by more than one supplier. You also have the facility to enter the actual costs of the ingredient, so you would know at a glance who sells the cheapest or the best ingredients.

  Although you have your ingredients set up successfully in your cabinet, you would also want to purchase new ingredients or replace ingredients that have been used up. The Shopping List lets you do all this.
• 4. Creating Your Recipes
