What are books?
Books are curated collections of recipes organized into categories. For example, a book might be called "Italian Classics" with categories like "Appetizers", "Pasta", and "Desserts".
You can also include articles in your book alongside recipes — so a book isn't just a list of dishes, it can be a narrative. Use articles to set the scene for a chapter, share the story behind a family recipe, walk readers through a technique, or write a closing reflection. Articles sit in the same table of contents as recipes and let you build a real cookbook feel rather than a flat list.
