Quick answer: On any Facebook post, tap Share → More… → CookBook. Choose Save to CookBook to store it instantly or Edit recipe to tweak tags, notes, or nutrition first. CookBook pulls the recipe from the caption - or follows any link in the post if the caption is empty.

Quick tips
- Caption first: Works best when the full recipe is written in the post caption or a first comment.
- No caption? CookBook looks for a website link in the post and tries to import from there.
- Copy-link fallback: Copy the video URL → open CookBook → tap Paste on the dashboard → Confirm.
