​


​Step 1: Create and verify your account

  1. Create a Heritage Cookbook account using the email address that was invited.

  2. Check your email and verify your account.

    • If you don’t see the email, please check your spam or junk folder.

  2. Click My Books in the top-left corner.

  3. Scroll down to Books I’m contributing to.

  4. Click on the cookbook you’ve been invited to.
    ​

Step 3: Open the recipe editor

  • You’ll be taken to the Content tab (the editing screen).

  • As a contributor, you can add recipes, but you can’t delete pages or edit other parts of the book.
    ​

Step 4: Choose where to add your recipe

  1. In the left-hand menu, click Recipes.

  2. A list of sections (chapters) will appear.

    • A book can have 1 to 12 sections.

  3. Click the section where you’d like your recipe to go.
    ​


​
​Step 5: Add your recipe

  1. Scroll to the bottom of the section.

  2. Click + Add new page.

    ​

You can now add:

  • Recipe title

  • Yield

  • Ingredients

  • Instructions

  • Notes


​Helpful tips

  • You don’t need to save separately — your work saves automatically.

  • If you don’t see the book listed, make sure you’re logged into the same email address that was invited.
