Recipe

An example recipe, printed from the Wikibooks Cookbook.

A recipe is a set of instructions that show how to prepare or make something, especially a culinary dish.

Modern culinary recipes normally consist of several components:

  • The name (and often the locale or provenance) of the dish,
  • How much time it will take to prepare the dish
  • The required ingredients along with their quantities or proportions
  • Equipment and environment needed to prepare the dish
  • An ordered list of preparation steps
  • The number of servings that the recipe will provide

Some recipes will note how long the dish will keep and its suitability for freezing.

Earlier recipes often included much less information, serving more as a reminder of ingredients and proportions for someone who already knew how to prepare the dish.

Recipe writers sometimes also list variations of a traditional dish.
