Editing steps and step groups

Updated 2026-09-02

In the recipe editor, open the steps section. You can:

  • Edit any step's text.
  • Add or remove steps, and reorder them — split a run-on paragraph into separate steps so Cook Mode paces well.
  • Add step-group headings ("For the sauce", "To assemble") to break a long method into sections.
  • Add a Note to an individual step — a reminder or tip that shows with that step, including in Cook Mode.

Step notes are the same note you can add mid-cook — see Step notes while cooking. For how this differs from the recipe's Description and Comment, see The four kinds of notes.

Questions this answers

  • How do I fix steps that imported as one big block?
  • How do I add section headings to the method?
  • How do I add a note to a step?
