Cooking step list
A recipe is a set of instructions for preparing a particular dish, listing ingredients and steps: I found a recipe for lemon cake.
The word extends to any formula or procedure for achieving a result: a recipe for success, a recipe for disaster.
In medicine, recipe originally meant a prescription—the ℞ symbol comes from the Latin for "take."
