Cuisine, Course & Main Ingredient

Tags
Adding tags also increases the likelihood that your recipe will turn up in search results – think about how your recipes fit into various categories and add those as tags.
Photos & Videos
A picture is worth a thousand words, so help others visualize the end result by adding a few photos of your delicious dish. And if you’ve got a related video tutorial, be sure to add it! (Here’s How)

Wow, that is a pretty useful site. I will be sure to check it out, it would be useful for my recipe site.
Zach says: I feel a little dumb, but how do I add a note to my recipe? I want to make notes about different variations I use every time I make a particular recipe.

Hey Zach – No problem!
On the web, select your recipe, then click on Notes & Media (add) – you can add a note there
On the iPhone app, select the recipe, scroll down, then tap on “Add a Note”
On the Android app, select the recipe, hit Menu on your phone, then tap Attach, then Add Note
Zach says: Oh brilliant! I just got an Android phone so I really appreciate the instructions. Only a few days with Springpad and I’m not sure I’d be able to live without it now!
