Once you have registered and logged in, go to My Books and click Start a New Book.

Step Three

Fill out all the details to give your book a personality.

Start adding recipes to your cookbook via the Add Recipe button and follow the upload process. You will need to specify the ingredients, serves, method and cooking time with as much or as little information as you wish.
