Editing a recipe

Updated 2026-09-02

Open the recipe and tap Edit. Everything is editable in one form:

  • Title, Description, and a free-form Comment
  • Source URL
  • Servings and prep / cook / total time
  • Cuisine, meal type, difficulty, protein, carb (choose from set lists)
  • Dietary tags (a fixed set like Vegetarian, Gluten-free)
  • Nutrition figures
  • Ingredients — see Editing ingredients
  • Steps — see Editing steps and step groups
  • Photo — see Recipe photos
  • Tags — your own labels; see Tags

Save when you're done. Editing and saving need an internet connection.

If your save is blocked because someone else changed the recipe, see This recipe changed by another household.
