Summary:This paper presents a system that helps you cook a recipe through a spoken dialogue tutoring session. We report our experience while creating the first version of a tutoring dialogue system that helps the user cook a selected dish. Having a working framework to support us with the creation of the cooking assistant, the main challenge we faced was the change of paradigm: instead of the system being driven by the user, the user is instructed by the system. The result is a system capable of dictating generic contents to the user. On top of it, the system can be used in several domains where the goal is not the replacement of the user but providing some assistance while (s)he performs some procedural task.
