When you begin editing those fields, a toolbar will appear above the field with helper buttons for inserting (in order) bold, italics, photos, website links, recipe links, and the final button is a help menu with examples of formatting.

Paprika uses a modified form of Markdown: to make words bold, surround them with __ or **. To use italics, surround words with _ or *.

Example A **bold** word. Words in _italics_ are fun.

To insert a link, put the title in brackets and the URL/link in parentheses. Only the title will be displayed.

Example A link to [Google](http://www.google.com)

To link to another recipe, put the name of the recipe in brackets, and prefix it with recipe:

Example A link to [recipe:Brussels Sprouts with Pancetta]

To insert a photo thumbnail, put the name of the photo in brackets, and prefix it with photo:. A thumbnail will be displayed. You can click on the thumbnail to see the full size image in the photo gallery.

Example [photo:Mixing the Batter]

Paprika looks up photos and recipes based on name; if multiple recipes exist with the same name, the first one retrieved will be opened. If multiple photos exist with the same name, the first one returned will be opened in the gallery. If the recipe or photo name changes, links will need to be updated.

Adding Recipe Photos

You can add multiple photos to a recipe. They will be resized to a max size of 2048x2048 pixels and synced with your cloud data.

From the edit recipe view, click the Photos section to see all photos associated with a recipe. To add a photo from the filesystem, click the + button on the right side of the upper toolbar. Photos can be dragged in from other apps, or copied to the clipboard. Once copied to the clipboard, the Clipboard option will be available in the + dropdown. Choose that option to add the photo to the recipe.

Each photo displays its name and buttons to Edit the name of the photo and Delete the photo in the toolbar above the thumbnailed image.

The photo name is used to identify the photo when embedding it in text, and will also be displayed at the top of the photo gallery.

The thumbnail does not need to be one of the associated photos in the gallery. You can delete the thumbnail using the Delete Thumbnail button next to the photo of the thumbnail. This will not affect existing recipe photos.

You can also change the thumbnail by clicking the Choose Thumbnail button, then clicking the name of the photo you'd like to use as the thumbnail.

Drag to reorder photos and change their position in the photo gallery.

Viewing timers - All of your active timers are displayed in the left sidebar.

Adding a timer manually - From the left sidebar, click the Add Timer button. You can choose a name for the timer. Once you have selected a time, press Start to begin the timer.

Coupon For Paprika Recipe Manager

Scaling - You can scale the ingredients of a recipe by clicking on the Scale & Convert button under the Ingredients heading.

When the ingredients scaling popover appears, select the amount you'd like to scale the ingredients by and then click Save. The scale button will update to display the current recipe scale.

The amount to scale can be entered as a whole number, decimal, or fraction (ex: 3, 0.25, 1/3).

If you add a scaled recipe to the grocery list, the grocery list items will preserve the ingredients scaling.

Note Paprika anticipates this ingredient format: quantity unit ingredient, i.e. 1 cup milk. For best results, ensure your ingredients are entered in this format.

Converting - You can convert ingredients units from standard (US) units to metric or reset them to their original units by using the Convert Units dropdown in the same popover.

Crossing off Ingredients

When you are cooking, you may find it useful to cross off ingredients once you have used them. Simply click the desired ingredient in order to cross it off. (Click again to un-cross it.)

Marking Directions

You can also highlight the current step of your directions by clicking on it to help keep your place.

Pinning Recipes

You can pin active recipes to easily switch between them while you are cooking. To pin a recipe, click the Actions button in the recipe toolbar, and choose Pin Recipe.

Your pinned recipes will be displayed in the left sidebar. Click on any of these recipes to switch to them. When a recipe is pinned, Paprika will keep track of the ingredients you have crossed off and the current directions you have highlighted, so you don't lose your place.

When you're done cooking, hover over the pinned recipe in the list and click the x to un-pin the recipe.

Photo Gallery

If there are photos associated with the recipe, you can click the thumbnail in the recipe view to display the photo gallery. The photo gallery contains an ordered list of photos with names displayed at the top.

You can scroll the photos by using the arrow keys on your keyboard, or select a new photo by clicking the thumbnail at the bottom of the view.

You can close the photo gallery by pressing the ESC key on your keyboard or clicking the Back button in the upper left hand corner of the view.

Note When downloading recipes via the browser, only a link to the online photo is saved unless you explicitly add photos to the recipe using the context menu or by dragging photos into the edit photos screen. In the case that the thumbnail references a linked photo, clicking the thumbnail will load the photo from the internet and display it.

Tip If both a photo link and recipe photos exist, the photo gallery will load and the link button in the upper right corner of the gallery can be used to load the linked source image from the website.
