Recipe Introduction

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

It normally consists of four or five components: the name of the dish, the ingredients, preparation techniques and the number of servings. Recipe writers sometimes also list variations of the traditional dish.

Some notable features of a recipe include:

• Ingredients listed in order.
• Pan size specified.
• Cooking temperature specified.
• Criteria for cooking time

What else might be included:

• Special handling requirements (how are eggs or butter stored? At what temperature should they be when cooking starts?)
• Garnishing or serving advice (add a sprig of parsley for color).

Recipe writers often add additional facts that are not properly part of the recipe. The history of the dish, for example, or philosophical ramblings about the soul-enriching or health-benefiting properties of the dish, or what wonderful hostess in what particular town first served the dish to the author.

Nutritional information is often included as well, including calories, vitamin content, fat content, etc.
