Policy/Recipe template
This is a template page. Please do not add recipes here. This is the recommended template for recipes that are submitted to the cookbook. Please note that this is only a guideline; feel free to add other sections as necessary, or omit sections that are not applicable (although the recipe needs to be useful and comprehensible). Various Cookbook-related templates can be found in the Cookbook policy module. The five-dot system in the recipe summary is used to represent the relative difficulty of a recipe. Please keep these descriptions in mind when assigning a difficulty score. The images are useful in that clicking on them brings you to a category of recipes of particular difficulty. We borrowed these images from the German Cookbook (Kochbuch). Include the recipe summary template first, with image, cooking time, etc. Note the guidelines for the relative difficulty above. The image should be no more than 300px in order to maintain consistent style and formatting of all the Cookbook's recipe templates. Follow with the recipe template , along with additional navigation links as appropriate: A short description of the recipe should go here; anywhere from one sentence to a short paragraph or two is acceptable. However, keep it relatively brief so as not to detract from the recipe itself. If applicable, describe who uses the dish and how, as well as anything normally prepared with it. Stories of the recipe's creation or other anecdotes are perfectly acceptable, but avoid first-person language to ensure NPOV and to reflect the communal nature of the Cookbook. Avoid long histories of a given recipe/dish—these are best left to encyclopedic works such as Wikipedia.
