# Make a recipe your own

Canonical: https://docs.cooksaffron.com/editing/

Clear ingredients, useful notes, and a cover that feels right.

## Follow the four steps

Creation and editing move through Details, Ingredients, Method, and Finish. Add a title and a short description, then enter each ingredient with its amount and unit. Use preparation for details such as softened or finely chopped.

## Build the method

Keep each action in an ordered step. Add a timer where it helps you cook. Put storage advice, variations, or source notes in the recipe notes so they remain easy to find.

## Choose a cover

Choose your own photo or one of the covers matched to your recipe. The suggested cover is the strongest match. Check the final preview and save when the recipe is ready.

## Editing with the keyboard

Dismiss the keyboard using Done before continuing between stages. Review automatic capitalization and imported text, particularly proper names and specialist ingredients.
