Cooking it

Not one step here is timed, so there is no clock to keep — only the order things happen in.

Tap a step when it is done; the next one lights up.

The clock

This one never puts a number on anything — not one of its 4 steps is timed, so how long it takes is honestly unknown. The recipe itself says 10 min altogether, but it does not say where that time goes.
