Open the recipe and tap the pencil (Edit) at the top. Or touch and hold the recipe on the Kitchen tab and choose Edit.

The recipe editor has:

  • The photo at the top left, the Name, the stars and the heart.
  • Tags.
  • Oven, Prep and Cook: type them however you like, such as “350°F” or “20 min”.
  • Servings: how many servings the whole recipe makes.
  • Summary, Ingredients, Directions and Notes. Tap one to fill it in; on a wide screen, it opens beside the rest. Put one step per line in Directions.
  • Nutrition: worked out from the linked ingredients, unless you put in your own.
  • Source and URL: where the recipe came from. A recipe saved from a website fills them in for you.

When you’re done, tap the checkmark (or Done) at the top. To leave without saving, tap the X (or Close).

To try a change and keep the original as it is, make a copy of the recipe first and change the copy.
