Recipes are ‘things’ you’d normally produce in-house, in bulk.
For example, ‘Anchovy mayonnaise’ can be created as a recipe, which can then be added to a number of dishes (Burgers etc)
1. Go to Products -> Recipes & Dishes -> Recipes -> Add Recipe
2. Fill in the ‘General info’ details such as Recipe name, and choose a category (Food or Beverages)
Then you can start adding all the Ingredients, the Yield and Portions, Method of preparation, any Files you have and Notes applicable
Note: You can also add ‘Other costs’ for products you may want to add without linking to an existing product so that you get a better view of the recipe margin.
For example, you many want to add things like disposable cups etc, and even labour cost.
