Writing a Recipe

The recipes are stored in the collection "Recipes" (the folder /_recipes).

They are written in Markdown and contain a few special sections:

• The frontmatter, which contains:
• Title, Image, and Layout (which is "recipe")
• Ingredients (a list of things in the dish)
• Directions (a list of steps for the dish)
• Body content (for intros, stories, written detail)

If you need help with Markdown, here's a handy cheatsheet.

Writing a component recipe

A component recipe is a special recipe made up of other recipes. To make a new component recipe:

• place your smaller, single recipes into the /_components folder
• make a new recipe like normal in the /_recipes folders
• in the frontmatter of this new recipe, include your recipes from the /_components folder (instead of the usual Ingredeints list)

You can an example on the Red Berry Tart recipe.
